The Apple Sisters Variety Show

"Not only tuneful voices but also sharp comedic timing and a great sense of physicality to boot." - The Onion's Decider

"There's something gut-funny and satisfying about watching gorgeous, leggy ladies inexplicably make themselves unattractive, a tenet Amy Sedaris proves again and again." - Time Out NY

"Joy! They are a 1943 radio trio that charms their way into your heart. The Apple Sisters are three young Lucille Balls." - ifc.com

reasons to be pretty

Neil LaBute's play reasons to be pretty opens at UNLV's Black Box theatre on Friday, Sept. 18 and runs through the 27th.

Shows are at 8pm and tickets are $15.

Call 702-895-ARTS

This Tony-nominated play is a love story about the impossibility of love from one of the most important new voices in the American theatre. Greg really, truly, adores his girlfriend, Steph. Unfortunately, he also thinks she has a few physical imperfections, and when he casually mentions them, all hell breaks loose. A hopelessly romantic drama about the hopelessness of romance.

LaBute is possibly best known for his controversial films In the Company of Men and Your Friends and Neighbors.

Jersey Boys on NBC tonight!

The entire Las Vegas cast of Jersey Boys will be featured on America's Got Talent tonight! Tune in at 9pm to check it out.
