    'Tom Jones" is the first Equity show to ever appear in a hotel lounge. The vehicle is a faithful take off on Henry Fielding's famous novel and was written for the Desert Inn by Don McPherson, who also directs the performers.

All the costumes and scenery are exact reproductions of that era and were designed by Henry Crossen. This is the one show you won't want to miss on your next visit to the Desert Inn.
