It has finally happened. A hit Broadway musical - a Tony® Award-winner - has arrived in Las Vegas and it is the closest thing to both a Broadway experience and a genuine hit Broadway show this city has ever seen.

But none of them quite manages to do what Jersey Boys does. Spamalot is funny and true to the spirit of the original, but it runs a mere 90 minutes.
