Folies Bergere at the Tropicana Review
![]()
13 October 2008
Fans of Las Vegas, Nevada can agree - there's a little something for everyone. No matter what you're into, you can find something to do in Vegas. It's truly the land of a million options, although most only arrive for one or two. One Vegas attraction that some are unaware of is the Folies Bergere show at the Tropicana.
Critics of the show agree that Folies Bergere is the glamorous spark that takes Las Vegas back to a long-removed golden era. This timeless musical show personifies “sexy” Vegas, and provides classic entertainment that proves to be a much appreciated break from magic and mayhem. The show takes its name from The Folies Bergere, a Parisian music hall which was extremely popular throughout the late 1800s to around 1920. It's still in business today.
For lovers of all things music, dance and entertainment, Folies Bergere has a seat reserved just for you. It contains all the elements that a great Las Vegas show needs to succeed: singing and dancing, gorgeous scenery, gut-busting comedy, and the crème de la crème of Las Vegas - the showgirls.
Overall, Folies Bergere is a feast for the senses. This spectacle of entertainment will make you jump up and sing or roll over laughing. Folies plays to an average of 40,000 fans per month, and with the ever-changing and growing production, this Las Vegas legendary show continuously opens to new and anxious fans.
Folies Bergere takes the traditional French-style revue to an entirely different stratosphere with their intoxicating performance. From original, award-winning numbers like the Can-Can, to their sultry and steamy new Latin Mambo, Folies gives excitement to fans that can be found nowhere else in Vegas - save hitting the progressive 10-mil jackpot on a machine.
But with Folies Bergere, you're not pressing your luck and gambling with your entertainment. You're guaranteed to be a winner when you watch this show. If you've yet to experience Folies, then you're really missing the true essence of Las Vegas.
Although the show is lined with showgirl performers, it does not contain nudity until the later timeslots, and you will be informed whether or not the show is topless or not - or you can just ask for your preference. The average ticket price is around $40, which most will agree is a steal for a Vegas show. But for as great as the show is at taking people back to another era, it isn't overly popular with the “younger” crowd.
The throwback troupe doesn't necessarily appeal to people who come to Vegas for wild concerts, comedy specials, magic shows, etc. This is the epitome of a classic Vegas show, and should definitely be seen if you've ever wondered how the city was in the beginning. The Tropicana Theater isn't the best in Vegas, but when Folies Bergere is on, you'll never even notice it.
