ROUGE: The Sexiest Show in Vegas, a brand new exciting, topless spectacular and immersive sensual experience had its media event last night with a gala at The STRAT Hotel, Casino & SkyPod in Las Vegas. The stage at The STRAT Theater, (formerly the Stratosphere) got mighty hot for this fabulous new production. The giant showroom was perfect for this elegant theatrical experience leaving everyone in the audience feeling just a little bit naughtier, as they looked at their partners or guests seated next to them. The jokes and the characters were outrageous and all in good fun. 
We started the evening with drinks outside the showroom, then moved inside where plenty of appetizers were passed to the crowd. All of the cast members mingled and flirted as we were treated to chicken and beef skewers, cups of hummus, and lovely bites of shrimp. Each person had a beautiful filled cookie to take home on their table. One of the featured drinks was “The Nurse Naughty-tini,” inspired by one of the characters in the show, “Nurse Naughty”.
ROUGE is not just a show — it’s a journey of seduction and adult adventure designed to unleash one’s fantasies mixed with some extreme humor. We all have fantasies — and this erotic production brought them all out, with the huge 18-person cast of stunningly gorgeous topless women and men that were there to thrill and titillate you.
Created by Hanoch Rosènn, the man who has two other shows in town, of which I have seen both, Extravaganza at Bally’s and WOW – The Vegas Spectacular at the Rio. ROUGE combines “sexpertise” with acrobats, aerialists, dancers, contortionists, comedians, hand balancers, and more. The costuming and stage sets are perfect, the music fantastic, and every performer seems to totally love their role.
“I can feel the excitement and heartbeats of the cast 
backstage!” said Hanoch Rosènn, the Creator/Director of ROUGE, just prior to the show. “Though the cast is composed of the top, internationally award-winning men and women who are renowned for their artistry in acrobatics, dance, comedy, and aerial skills, they know they are in the city of shows, Las Vegas, and tonight is truly something special for all us.”
Rosènn has also brought along his Creative Team, including choreographer Nathan J. Clarke, (Creative Director and Choreographer for The Voice UK for four consecutive years and has worked with such artists as Annie Lennox, Rihanna, Queen and Robbie Williams). In addition, Lighting Designer Charles Morrison (Finding Magic Mike/HBO Max) is on board to design an erotic world inside The STRAT Theater; as well as, Costume Designer Ella Kolesnik (Swan Lake Rock Opera); Video Designer Shai Bonder (The Voice, and lead video designer for Eurovision 2019); Musical Director, Gur Murad (WOW, Extravaganza and various musicals and circus shows); award-winning Set Designer Michael Kramenko (ONE, presented by Rita, the biggest Israeli musical); Resident and Artistic Director, Sheer Davidai (WOW and Extravaganza); Music Planner, Kobi Ben Atar; and, Artistic Advisor, Yaniv Hadad.
Whether it’s ancient Rome, the Palace of Versailles, or modern-day Las Vegas, ROUGE takes you through one journey after another.
Let me highly recommend this show for the next time you’re in Las Vegas, it is stunning and beautiful. Show is on the second floor and parking at The Strat is free.
