 Gladys Knight to extend show at Tropicana Las Vegas

Seven-time Grammy Award winner Gladys Knight will be extending her special engagement at the newly transformed Tropicana Las Vegas. Gladys Knight “A Mic and a Light”, which showcases 90 minutes of fan favorites such as “Midnight Train to Georgia” and “The Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me” as well as newer hits, was originally scheduled to hold its final performance on September 3.  Due to the show’s immense success, the “Empress of Soul” will continue to entertain audiences Tuesdays through Sundays at 8 p.m. through the end of the year.

“I am thrilled to be extending at Tropicana Las Vegas through the end of the year. The joy we’ve had performing at the Gladys Knight Theater over the past several months and the overwhelming support from our fans led us to add these additional shows,” says Knight. “Working in this showroom at Tropicana has been a dream come true for me and I look forward to sharing this experience with many more audiences.”

“Gladys is one of the greatest performers of all time, and we are excited that she and her team have decided to extend their special engagement at our property. They have truly become an important part of the Tropicana family,” said Melissa Steinberg, Vice President of Casino Operations and Entertainment at Tropicana Las Vegas.
