Suzy's Las Vegas Show invites Mike Meier to discuss Siegfried & Roy comedy musical
EntSun News/11061723
Las Vegas magicians Siegfried & Roy are forever associated with Las Vegas. No wonder Las Vegas show host Suzy Saline invited the writer of the Shangri-La-La comedy musical to her show, "Suzy's Las Vegas."
ARLINGTON, Va. - EntSun -- The comedy musical Shangri-La-La will be on stage July 22-24 at the Arlington Drafthouse theater in Arlington, Virginia (Washington, D.C. area). It is a show about Las Vegas, its appeal, its ugly underbelly… and Siegfried and Roy, who will forever be associated with Sin City. So, no wonder that Suzy Saline invited writer & composer Mike Meier to discuss his show on Suzy's show "Suzy's Las Vegas."
During the interview, Mike first explained that it developed out of real events – Mike represented "certain" plaintiffs in a lawsuit in Las Vegas… The defendants were no other than Vegas celebrities Siegfried & Roy. It was quite a ride for Mike and his clients, as he had no prior knowledge of the Las Vegas justice system, known as "Hometown Justice." You have to have juice with the judge; otherwise, you'll lose.

So it started as a rather negative drama. But as Mike kept on writing, the first irony appeared, then the first joke, and soon it became a comedy. Then Mike wrote the 20 songs to turn it into a musical, finally.
In the story, Joshua becomes an assistant to the iconic Las Vegas act "Siegfried & Roy," and learns the hard way that "Sin City" is more than just a nickname. With raucous detours into crime, punishment, and Las Vegas' unique brand of "Hometown Justice," Shangri-La-La is a wild ride through the lives and times of the most successful magic act ever to grace the Vegas strip. A musical and sensorial extravaganza -- you'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll wonder why! Turns out all that glitters ain't gold!
