Jesus Nanci (Jesus Nanci Productions), founder, producer, and choreographer of Viva Drag Brunch Vegas, moved to Las Vegas in 2006. He obtained his Bachelor's degree in Fine Arts, Dance, and Choreography from the University of Las Vegas, Nevada.

“Within the first two years, I started to work with local dance companies and danced with Las Vegas Contemporary Dance Theater with Bernard Gaddis and the Nevada Repertory Dance Theater,” Jesus explained. He would then perform in Frank Marino Divas Las Vegas, Absinthe, and MJ Live. His goals included choreographing and producing shows, as well as starting his own dance company.

“I was working on the show for almost a year, auditioning cast members and selecting the best for our new show. We will be rotating the cast, and I might even go on stage," laughed Jesus.

Alebrijes by Chef Paco in Neonopolis was selected due to its great space and excellent food by owner and operator Chef Paco. For more info, visit alebrijesbychefpaco.com, follow on Facebook and Instagram.

“I believe downtown is the heart of Las Vegas, through old classic So Vegas still down there,” said Jesus. “Our slogan, ‘Brunch Just Got a Makeover,’ there's a whole aesthetic and background with that whole meaning for us to bring something a little bit fresher, mixing classical show outlines that still have this immersive and interactive experience. It is choreographed, still making everybody feel like they're part of the show and engaging with the audience.”
