Dita Von Teese to Reopen Burlesque Show at Venetian Las Vegas
Dita Von Teese is shimmying over to The Venetian, where she will open a new Las Vegas Strip burlesque show at the Voltaire Theater on September 19.

“This exquisite jewel-box theater compliments the timeless allure of my show,” Von Teese said in a press statement. “And what could be better than splashing around in my giant Champagne glass, with the sparkling bubbles of Voltaire floating throughout the room? I’m brimming with excitement!”
Von Teese, marketed as the “international queen of burlesque,” had the curtain closed on “Dita Las Vegas,” her show at the Horseshoe’s Jubilee Theater, on June 15. Presumably, that was due to poor ticket sales — pretty much the only reason any show closes in Las Vegas — though PR departments never distribute press releases announcing or explaining the closures of the shows they rep.
Von Teese, 51, will continue performing pretty much the same burlesque dances, in the same ornate costumes — some of which were created by Bob Mackie for the final Las Vegas showgirl show, “Jubilee!” — in the new revue. The Voltaire holds up to 1,000 people, only 160 fewer than the Jubilee Theater when Von Teese headlined there.
Von Teese will open less than a month after pop icon Christina Aguilera closes her Voltaire residency on Labor Day Weekend. Aguilera opened her show, and the Voltaire itself, last November.
Live Nation Las Vegas will produce the show, in partnership with the Voltaire and its founder, Michael Gruber.
Upon entering Voltaire, guests are transported to another era through the venue’s art deco design and cabaret setup, making it the perfect venue for Dita, her sparkling costuming, and effervescent charm,” Gruber said in a statement.
The Venetian teased the news on Monday, by tweeting this video of sparkly high heels clicking up the stairs to the Voltaire stage. The caption read: “Guess who’s stepping into the spotlight at Voltaire soon…”
Tickets will go on sale 10 a.m. Thursday, August 16 at voltairelv.com.
