Dennis Miller brings humor to The Orleans! Five Time Emmy Award ® Winner!



Five-time Emmy Award® winner and crowd favorite Dennis Miller brings his hilarious stand-up routine back at The Orleans Showroom for three nights, April 8, 9 and 10 – each evening at 8 p.m.

Celebrated as a witty comedian with an entertaining and intriguing stand-up routine, Miller keeps audiences laughing with his irreverent observations. A favorite of the public and critics alike, The New York Times said, “Mr. Miller is exquisitely attuned to contemporary foibles … his material can be scathing, his delivery low key … Mr. Miller reaches a bit farther than most comedians for the scorching comment … this smart aleck has an uncommonly sharp eye.”

Called “one of the premiere comedy talents in
America today,” Miller emerged on the national scene in as the “Weekend Update” correspondent on NBC’s Saturday Night Live. After leaving SNL in 1991, Miller moved to HBO, where he hosted the critically acclaimed talk show Dennis Miller Live for nine seasons. No stranger to television talk shows, Miller is a regular on Fox News Channel’s Hannity and The O’Reilly Factor. He was also host and executive producer of CNBC’s Dennis Miller, which featured conversation, opinion and humor.

In a career that has spanned far beyond showrooms and interview sets, Miller has also made a name for himself as a film actor and author. His notable motion picture credits include such mid-‘90s favorites as Disclosure, The Net and Murder at
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Miller’s “rant” books, including I Rant Therefore I Am, Ranting Again and The Rants have all been on The New York Times best sellers list.

Having called plays alongside Al Michaels and NFL Hall of Fame quarterback Dan Fouts on ABC’s Monday Night Football for two seasons, Miller’s voice is as familiar to sports fans as it is to those who pack theatres to enjoy his comedy.

Showtime is 8 p.m. Tickets are available starting from $49.95, plus tax and convenience fees, and can be purchased by calling the Box Office at 702.365.7075 or visiting www.orleanscasino.com. Save on convenience fees by purchasing the tickets in person at Coast Casinos.

Joan Collins in Las Vegas!! Enjoys Gondola Ride and SHOPS!



“Dynasty” star and Hollywood royalty Joan Collins checked into The Venetian for a Vegas vacation this weekend.

Help These Dogs!!! Over 300 in jeopardy!!

"Over the past ten years Adopt a Rescue Pet (ARP), a non-profit 501(c)3 group that primarily helps abused, neglected, or homeless dogs, has helped over 13,000 dogs, cats, ferrets, rabbits, and pond fish find permanent, loving homes.  Some required extensive medical treatment to bring them back on the road to health.  Maxine required special eye surgery to reattach her inner eyelid.  Bennie arrived extremely emaciated and required extensive care, time, and a special diet to recover.  Kazz was bitten by a rattle snake and needed emergency vet care.  It’s not an exaggeration to say that without ARP to help them, most of these animals would be dead
Now this group that has given so much needs your help.  Their Rescue Ranch and Retirement Sanctuary in Amargosa Valley is in danger of foreclosure.  Currently, the sanctuary is home to around 300 dogs.  ARP must raise $70,000 by May 1 to save their sanctuary and the dogs."
