STRIP EXTRA: JUBILEE'S TOP ALUM
Manage episode 165893 series 3004
In addition to our regular episode interview with Jubilee! showrunner Fluff LaCoque, we’re also marking the 30th anniversary of the vintage vegas showgirl production with this conversation with the show’s most successful alumna, Tina Walsh. As you’re about to hear, Walsh came to Vegas from Texas as a young actress determined to put in a few months as a singer and dancer for Jubilee! Instead, she stayed in the show for eight years, then starred in EFX with Michael Crawford, Tommy Tune and Rick Springfield. After that, she opened Mamma Mia! at Mandalay Bay in the lead role of Donna and currently she appears nightly as Madame Giry in Phantom: The Las Vegas Spectacular. In this conversation, Walsh tells terrific stories of life backstage at Jubilee in the 1980s and 1990s, when she and her co-stars shared a backstage hallway at Bally’s with a showroom where the likes of Sammy and Dean performed regularly.
