Need show tips for Vegas with a child
 
Taking our 11 year old to Vegas April 13 - 17. Wanted to see "O" but it is sold out. Mystere is too close to La Noube (sp?) which we have seen twice. How is Siegfried & Roy? Open to anything, music, dance, magic, etc, just something good. Any advice?

Mamma Mia is another possibility.

I've heard good reports about Lance Burton's family-friendly show. (Monte Carlo)<BR><BR>I've seen Mamma Mia..unless your child loves ABBA(I do) he/she won't like it.

Saw Lance bUrton a few weeks ago -- very kid-friendly. A lot of them end up on stage helping out.

S&amp;R may be just the right show for an 11 yr old. You'll have magic, white tigers, and a cartoon-like superhero story on stage. Try to sit close up by the stage as the tigers are beautiful to see. Unfortunately, S&amp;R aren't so beautiful too see up close as they are so stretched with face lifts they have permanent &quot;smiling&quot; faces.

Yeah, S&amp;R are really old! I can't imagine how much surgery they have had. We went to the Circus Museum in Balboa, WI a few years ago, and either S or R was in the circus MANY years ago and they had an old costume of his on display. I know we were amazed when we figured out how old they must be, I wish I could remember. Anyone know? Just curious...

They are in their early-mid 60's. All I did was enter seigfriedandroy.com and up came their site. Any entertainer in LV probably has their own internet presence. Said one born in 1939 and the other 1944 or something.
