BROADWAY PLAY The Phantom of the Opera is officially titled Phantom: The Vegas Spectacular because it’s an abridged version of the original.

The current “Hot Ticket” in town is Cirque du Soleil’s LOVE at the Mirage.
WOLFGANG PUCK has created a new drink to commemorate the luckiest day of the year: “The Strawberry Hardway” or “7-7-7 Cocktail” is named after the winning blackjack hand where the player is dealt three sevens for 21, also known as the “The Hardway.” The new libation will be served only from June to August, and includes a blend of Chinaco Silver, fresh lemon juice, simple syrup, fresh strawberries, balsamic crème and a dash of luck served on the rocks. Hold everything and give me a double shot of LUCK!
