AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Alexander "The Great" Dean has been a headline illusionist act on the Vegas strip for twelve years, but his bad habits are finally catching up with him. To slip past the mob and the FBI, Alex will have to perform the ultimate vanishing act. Francesca, the beautiful but streetwise chanteuse, is performing in Vegas for a limited engagement. She's been hurt before, but finds herself falling for Alex. Burlesque starlet Tiffany Hills stopped in Vegas on the way to Hollywood, and never left. She's learnt how to manipulate the seductive power of lust and money. But with Tony "The Tool" Spitori at the top of the heap, the mob is really calling the tune. Set during a time when the mob ran the strip, "Las Vegas (Confidential) The Musical" is based on previously untold true events.' Source: www.lasvegasthemusical.com.au (Sighted 28/10/08).
