This week, Ira spoke with Lauri S. Thompson, who will be performing in “Follies,” the Broadway musical (with music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim), April 11-14 at the Aliante Casino Hotel. “Follies” features 45 dazzling performers, a 30-piece orchestra and 12 legendary Las Vegas showgirls. In this episode of “Talk About Las Vegas With Ira,” Lauri talks about how the special show came into being; performing on stage after all these years as an attorney; working again with showgirls who she worked with at the Tropicana; how the story mirrors the reality of production shows that used to be staged in Las Vegas; the amount of talent on stage and off who will contribute to this production; why the musical is also a tribute to Las Vegas music legend Bill Fayne; and the special moment of the show for her.
