(LAMBERTVILLE, NJ) -- Music Mountain Theatre is presenting Viva Las Vegas weekends through May 21. The production features a playlist of familiar and beloved music and lets you take a stroll down the Vegas strip of yesteryear!

Complete with music from the Rat Pack, Peggy Lee, Ann Margret, and –of course – Elvis, this night is sure to bring a smile to your face. The show will celebrate the extravagance of Sin City.

Act II moves into the hipster 60s featuring the music of Tom Jones, Burt Bacharach, and more.
