As Nevada continues to slowly reopen following months of COVID-19-related closures and restrictions, several of Las Vegas’ most celebrated entertainers are returning to the stage.
MGM Resorts International on Wednesday laid out a timeline for returning shows and schedules for several that have been operating at reduced capacity. Some entertainers, such as illusionist David Copperfield and ventriloquist comedian Terry Fator, will return in March. Others, including Carrot Top and “Fantasy” at Luxor Las Vegas, will resume on Friday (Feb. 19).
