An 80-minute comedic musical event, Divorce Party Las Vegas centers around Linda, still reeling from her divorce, as her friends turn her despair into a weekend of hilarity. Hailed by the L.A. Weekly as a blend of “Sex and the City with Dr. Phil, Oprah and SNL,” the show uses laughs, songs and the occasional shock factor to explore the realities of divorce, long term relationships and moving on.

Divorce Party Las Vegas is brought to life by Tony Award-winning Broadway veteran Mark Schwartz and co-authors Amy Botwinick, divorce coach and international author, and director Jay Falzone. Together they have created a wildly hilarious show that spins the "trauma drama" of a break-up into a hysterically lively production.

“A version of this production has seen great success across the country and has finally found its home here at Bally’s Las Vegas,” said Mark Schwartz co-author and producer of the show, “And as a thank you to the community that has embraced us, we are happy to extend a special offer for all Las Vegas locals.”


Tickets to Divorce Party Las Vegas are $64.70 and $83.30 plus taxes and fees.
