I haven't seen it, but my friends who live there say the Danny Gans is clearly the best show in town.

My favorite must-see shows in Vegas, in order:

1. Blue Man Group (Luxor). Unique mixture of humor, rhythm, lights, and audience interaction. If you're brave sit up front in the "poncho section." You won't get THAT wet.

2. Mystere (Treasure Island). The first Cirque du Soleil show in Vegas. Beautiful and magical with great music. No bad seats.

3. O (Bellagio) The second Cirque du Soleil show. If you love water you can't miss this. Ridiculously expensive. If you have any money left eat at Picasso or Olive's afterwards and watch the fountain show.

4. Lance Burton (Monte Carlo). The world's best magician mixes gentle humor and interaction with kids into his brilliantly executed act.

5. Siegfried and Roy (Mirage). OK, their dialogue is wooden and their tricks are stale. But the animals are beautiful and the production is utterly world class. The dancers are beautiful whether you like watching the girls or the boys.

The best girlie show in town is Midnight Fantasy at Luxor. Also, Penn & Teller and Louie Anderson are frequently in town and are worth seeing.

Have fun!
