Tuesday night, the tantalizing ladies of FANTASY, the award-winning topless female revue at Luxor Hotel and Casino, celebrated 23 years of success on the Las Vegas Strip with a VIP party at Public House inside the iconic Las Vegas property, followed by a performance of the show.

To commemorate the milestone, FANTASY’s ravishing showgirls posed for photographs on the red carpet with the new calendar and were joined on the carpet by one of the show’s guest performers, Murray SawChuck, headliner of “Murray the Magician” at Tropicana Las Vegas.

Chuck Bowling, President &COO of Mandalay Bay and Luxor, welcomed the audience and congratulated Mann along with the entire team at FANTASY on 23 incredible years. Bowling was joined onstage by Mann, who expressed her deep gratitude for the cast, crew and fans of FANTASY.
The Nevada Donor Network Foundation was announced as the recipient of an annual donation from sales of the new “2023: FANTASY Has Legs” calendar.
Steven Peralta, foundation president, and Joe Ferreira, president and CEO, as well as Rick Harrison, owner of the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop and star of “Pawn Stars” on the History Channel; comedian Sam “Tape Face” Willis and MGM Resorts International executives were in attendance for the evening’s celebrations.
During the sizzling anniversary show, Lorena Peril, headliner of the award-winning revue, captivated the audience with her powerful vocals alongside the cast of talented dancers, while SawChuck had the audience in awe with his mesmerizing magic.
The scintillating production also introduced several new numbers into the show, each sung by Peril, including the new opening number “Let’s Get Loud/Already All Ready” and “Man! I Feel Like a Woman!,” both choreographed by Yesi Burgess, dancer and in-house choreographer for FANTASY, as well as “Leave Your Hat On” and the rousing new finale number, “Show Me How You Burlesque,” choreographed by superstar dancer and choreographer Sienna Lyons.
