If you’ve ever wanted to see a legend, then you’re in luck, because Shania Twain starts the latest round in her Las Vegas residency, Let’s Go!, this week.
Although it seems hard to believe, the Canadian superstar has been in the music industry for more than three decades, with more than 100 million albums sold worldwide. And in her Vegas show, she delivers all her hits, thrilling the fans who fill Zappos Theater.
Although Twain has changed up her setlist throughout the Let’s Go! residency, which started in 2019, her latest one starts off with “Rock This Country!” a constant in her tours and residencies. And it has its intended effect: Once it starts, every member of the audience is on their feet dancing, as Twain brings an energetic presence to the stage. “Life’s About to Get Good,” “Up!” “Don’t Be Stupid (You Know I Love You)” and “Come On Over” keep fans up, while enormous graphics blossom over and around the stage. Twain speaks to the crowd, introducing this song, then that one, and dashing off for costume changes throughout. (Yes, you’ll see that famous midriff, and her duster is sure to make an appearance.) What else might you see? A great band, of course, one that does justice to “You’re Still the One” and “You Win My Love.”
Those popular songs just keep on coming, and midway through the concert the stage transforms into the Twain Town Saloon, where she performs some of her biggest hits, bringing up crowd members to hang out in the process. “That Don’t Impress Me Much,” “Any Man of Mine” and “Whose Bed Have Your Boots Been Under?” make a perfect match for the Western motif.
It’s not all high energy, though. “Party For Two,” “Fix You” and “Can’t Help Falling in Love” show off her slower side and let her stretch herself with a couple of covers.
She closes out the show with “(If You’re Not In It For Love) I’m Outta Here!” “From This Moment On” and fan favorite “Man! I Feel Like a Woman!” And you might find that she changes out a song or two, so keep your eyes and ears open.
Twain has had two residencies here, and actually started this one in 2019, but was rudely interrupted by the pandemic. She’s more than made up for that by extending the run, with the last shows in the residency scheduled for September.
