Seeing Marilyn Monroe, Liza Minnelli, and Lady Gaga share a stage would make for a great show, but getting the three together would be a logistical nightmare, as Marilyn is dead, Gaga’s costume changes would be ridiculous, and Liza’s got a rep for being more than a little cuckoo. But catching that trio along with other divas such as Barbra Streisand, Cher, and Reba McEntire can be quite easy thanks to the fine art of female impersonation.
Especially now that one of Las Vegas’ longest running drag shows, La Cage, has found a new home at Scottsdale’s Talking Stick Resort. Performer extraordinaire Jimmy Emerson leads the show and shakes up the traditional costume-heavy, lip-syncing format with outrageous monologues and Michael Jackson impersonations.
Thursdays-Saturdays, 8 p.m. Starts: Jan. 5. Continues through Jan. 31, 2012
