LV Talk Updated 02/21/2004 Folies Bergere By Clluck Round* "Folies Bergere" is the quintessential Las Vegas show... That should be the sum total of my review because if someone were to think of a "Las Vegas show ," it would be embodied by "Folies Bergere." "Folies" has everything that a Las Vegas show should have.,.singing* dancing, showgirls, comedy, spectacle, etc. It is the longest continuously running show in America?╟÷now going into its 45th year.

This latest revision is the most comprehensive remake of the show that I have seen in the last five years, and 1 agree with almost all of the changes that were macie. Some of the numbers were getting a little tired, some were dated...one of the numbers 1*11 actually miss, but as a whole, it is a better show. Dam O?╟╓Brien and Tracy Ault are the singers of the evening, and O?╟╓Brien works at being the emcee as well. For the most part, he does a decent job, but is not really a match with Ault. Ault is a dynamic personality and a powerful singer. She has performed in a couple of different Strip productions, and she has always been wonderful. Because of the strength of her persona, though, she
