What is it?
|
|
A much improved, lively show full of music, dancing, stunts, costumes, and Mardi Gras type floats that run around a track above the casino. The music ranges from Carnival in Rio style salsa to Zoot Suit swing with most of the action happening on a stage near the center of the Masquerade Village casino and on the floats above you.

Is it worth the cost? |
|
It's free to watch so that automatically makes it worth it in our opinion. You can also pay to join the parade and ride on one of the floats, which seems like a gigantic waste of money but probably no more so than dumping it into a slot machine. Your call.
|
|
What else do I need to know?
|
|
The show will be closed temporarily from April through the early summer.
Get there early to get a prime viewing spot along the railings on the second floor shopping arcade. This is not only the best place to watch the show but also your best chance to snare some Mardi Gras beads being thrown from the floats.

|
What's the bottom line?
|
|
Recent improvements in music selection and cast have made the show much better than it used to be, but it's still not something we would recommend going out of your way to see. However, if you're in the neighborhood it's a fun diversion.
