Pro football's big Vegas arrival is finally here. The Las Vegas Raiders are kicking off their second NFL season at Allegiant Stadium this month and this time the stunning new venue will be packed with fans from all over the country, all of whom will be no doubt over the moon to experience football done Vegas style.
It makes all the sense in the world for legendary quarterback, sports broadcaster and mega-sized personality Terry Bradshaw to return to his Vegas gig at the same time, but Bradshaw was actually ahead of the game when it comes to his fast-paced show on the Strip.
The Shreveport, La.-born Hall of Famer got his first taste of the Vegas stage with a slightly different production—more of a traditional one-man show—at The Mirage back in 2013. It allowed him to show off his singing skills while entertaining the audience with stories from his unique career.
From its very beginnings, The Terry Bradshaw Show in Las Vegas was engineered by Anita Mann, one of the most accomplished choreographers and TV producers in the business and the creator and producer of the long-running female revue Fantasy at Luxor. Her collaboration with Bradshaw is a big reason why his show ended up in the same Atrium Theater at Luxor for a bit of a trial run in late summer 2019, but Mann’s expertise and rhythmic sensibilities also pushed Bradshaw to get even more musical in his show, and his ever-improving skills onstage are the reason why the show has quickly gained a following and was launched as a full-fledged residency in early 2020.
Now that so many shows have turned the lights back on in 2021—including Fantasy and Carrot Top’s headlining comedy show in the Atrium—Bradshaw is ready to resume his 70-minute whirlwind that finds him singing more than ever before, joking and interacting with the audience, and always sharing his personal first-hand accounts of a life lived on and off the football field.
And as he explained prior to the pandemic, there’s no better place for Terry Bradshaw to be Terry Bradshaw. “Las Vegas is really a family town now. It’s beautiful. People live lives here,” he said. “It’s not just that you go out to Vegas to have fun or go to a convention. There’s a great atmosphere and I find it to be perfect timing (for football) because the NFL has evolved over the last 25 years. I will be very exciting and very well-received—a smash hit in Las Vegas.” The same could be said of The Terry Bradshaw Show.
