VTC’s Back Half Season is packed, pulsing, and
ready to raise hell (and a little hope).
From experimental horror, to Vegas-born solo shows, to a chaotic Christmas special with a drag twist, we’re closing 2025 with theatre that’s alive, urgent, and unafraid. You’ll find late-night burlesque, world premieres, youth-led musicals, and we’ve saved you a seat.
​​
This is the messy, magical back half. It’s got teeth. It’s got heart. And it’s all happening live.
A Vegas Premiere – created & directed by Jana Wimer. A wordless scream in the dark, a nightmare come to life on stage. Urban Death is the internationally acclaimed underground horror-theater sensation from L.A.’s Zombie Joe’s Underground, now making its Las Vegas debut just in time for spooky season. In a series of shocking, surreal vignettes, you’ll witness grotesque, bizarre, and utterly unpredictable horrors (and maybe laugh a little, if you’re twisted like us).
Note: Contains intense horror imagery, nudity, and adult content – “not for the faint of heart” (LA Times)
Recommended for ages 17+
OCTOBER 2025
A New Works Solo Festival. Big stories, one performer at a time. Solos is a curated festival of brand-new solo pieces by a diverse lineup of Vegas artists. From poignant monologues to comedic storytelling to experimental performance art, each act features an artist standing alone and laying it all on the line. Expect to laugh, cry, and discover breakthrough voices in this intimate festival.
Each evening will feature multiple short solo acts, come see one or come see them all!

Vegas’ queen of camp, Blanche DeBris, is live on-air to save Christmas, whether it needs saving or not! In this glitter-and-guffaws filled spectacular, Blanche’s TV special is going off the rails: the teleprompter is blank, the crew’s gone rogue, and co-hosts are dropping like flies. Can sheer holiday spirit (and sequins) hold it together?
Featuring original songs (by Blanche DeBris and Eric Travis Wilson) and side-splitting guest appearances, this show is the fabulous antidote to the typical sentimental holiday fare.

Alongside our mainstage productions, VTC keeps the lights on late with:
​
<-- COCKROACH CABARET
a three-times-a-night variety explosion hosted by Simone every First Friday
​
A NIGHT OF... -->
a monthly class-meets-crass burlesque showcase produced by Mollie De Menthe
​
Meanwhile, our A3 youth program will take stage with a brand-new devised work created entirely by our young ensemble.
​
These aren’t side projects—they’re the beating heart of a theatre that believes in craft, community, and showing up onstage
with nothing held back.
