Just added: Mentalist Clint! Runge with An Evening of Mind Games o Join mentalist Clint! Runge (also known as CEO & Founder of Archrival) for moments of magic, mystery and mental oddities as we explore the edges of luck, strange coincidences, gut instinct and cold reading techniques. Through a series of increasingly more difficult tests, Clint! will guide us to wonder just what is possible through mind bending manipulations, curious connections and what-if-it-was-real results. The best part? The audience will choose everything.

The Vegas Nightlife Pass $49 ticket includes access to the Vegas-style games and all the fun of 4+ stages of live entertainment! Doors open at 7:30 p.m.

Spend the evening in Vegas without ever leaving Lincoln, and know that every dollar you spend is bringing life-changing arts experiences to people all across the state!"
