Set amidst the dazzling backdrop of Fun Town, U.S.A., “Lucky in Las Vegas” is a comedy that follows the intertwined lives and romance of Lucky Jackson, a daring race car driver, and Rusty Martin, the vibrant pool manager at the Flamingo Hotel. Their deepening relationship faces challenges from Elmo Mancini, a rival racer with his sights set on winning both the Grand Prix and Rusty’s heart. The play is peppered with comic interludes from Scarlett Delight, the hotel’s extravagant masseuse, and Edna Sullivan, the witty talent show MC. As the high-stakes race unfolds, humor, romance, and thrilling action blend together, leading to a climactic and unexpected finale. This comedy is Jay’s modern spin on the 1964 Elvis Presley movie “Viva Las Vegas.”
