Reyna Von Vett and Hell’s Belles
in “Leadville or BUST!”
Vintage Denver Gets Naughty - A Comic Burlesque Operetta Call 303-295-1883 For Tickets
Reyna Von Vett and her
Hell’s Belles bring Denver’s rich history to life as they joke, dance and sing
in tight harmonies for a refreshingly different two hours of entertainment. Burlesque shows in the turn of the last century were often
called burlesque operettas or a “Burlettas” to let the audience know they were
in for a night of singing naughtiness and fun. From familiar, turn-of-the-century songs like “Ragtime Cowboy Joe,” “Alexander’s Ragtime Band” and “Seeing Denver” to bawdy songs like “Sam the Hot Dog Man,” “Hot Nuts (Get ‘Em From The Peanut Man)” and “Press My Button (Ring My Bell),” Leadville or BUST! is a tribute to the early history of girlie shows when sex and scandal was about corsets, bloomers and a bawdy song. Reyna Von Vett (writer/singer/producer/director) is an accomplished singer and actress who performed for more than one million guests over three years as Tanya in Mamma Mia! at the Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. Most recently, she played the role of Kaye in The Taffetas at the Denver Center for Performing Arts and led the cast of Swing! at the Colorado Candlelight Dinner Playhouse. Reyna’s solo act, Martinis and Misbehavin’: a Celebration of the American Songbook has run in many of Las Vegas’ most prestigious hotels. She was the first country singer to perform in the lounge at the Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino during the National Finals Rodeo with her band, “Reyna and Rock Bottom”. Reyna was honored to sing at the 2001 Presidential Inaugural Ball in Washington D.C. Audiences will recognize Hell’s Belles’ Teri English who was recently seen in CATS and The Producers at Carousel Dinner Theatre. Jessica Hindsley has performed at venues all over Colorado including the Town Hall Arts Center, Lakewood Cultural Center, Carousel Dinner Theatre and The Lincoln Center and Jill Nacke from performances at Country Dinner Playhouse and the Arvada Center. All three women have recently performed at the Candlelight Dinner Playhouse. |
