The nostalgia, modernity and raw emotion provided by Elvis’ music is brought to life every night<br />

through the international and multi-talented cast. The 75 artists comprised of dancers,<br />

musicians, singers, acrobats and lasso artists, seamlessly channel an exhilarating and youthful<br />

tribute to Elvis’ life through imaginative ‘50s and ‘60s inspired costumes, unique dance numbers,<br />

thrilling acrobatics, larger than life sets and heart-pumping live music.<br />

Viva ELVIS is presented in the custom-built Elvis Theater and features a conventional proscenium<br />

layout reminiscent of an opera house with a sound system that is amplified by the largest single<br />

ring Fiber Optic Audio Transport system in the world. Comprised of approximately 20,000 square<br />

feet, the stage, the backstage and wings accommodate the large-scale set elements and the<br />

need for speed in changing scenes imposed by the thrilling pace of the show.<br />
