Fishnets and Feathers: Forty Nine Years of the Folies Bergere in Las Vegas

A colorful exhibit currently on display on the 3rd floor of Lied Library showcases material on the Folies Bergere held in UNLV Special Collections. The classic production show, which began its run at the Tropicana Hotel in December 1959, is one of the last remaining shows to feature the iconic Las Vegas showgirl in all her glory, and the longest running show in Vegas history. It is scheduled to close this month on March 28.  Stop by for a walk down memory lane that features programs and photographs from Special Collections documenting this significant part of Las Vegas entertainment history.
