PIN UP™ to Open March 2, 2013
February 15, 2013—Las Vegas, Nevada– Pull out your calendar and circle March 2.
Stratosphere Casino, Hotel & Tower’s new original show PIN UP™, inspired by classic
pin up girl calendars and starring PLAYBOY’s 2011 Playmate of the Year® and Bettie
Page Clothing model Claire Sinclair, will now debut in the Stratosphere Theater on
Saturday, March 2, 2013 at 10:30pm.
PIN UP™ was previously announced to open Monday, February 25, 2013.
“Arrival of a new state-of-the-art lighting system designed specifically for PIN UP™ was
delayed due to inclement weather,” said Matt Mascali, Vice President of Entertainment at
Stratosphere Casino, Hotel & Tower. “We owe it to our performers to make sure every
component of the show matches the enormous talent on stage.”
Featuring an impressive cast of dancers, singers and a live six-piece band with a horn
section led by acclaimed trumpeter, conductor and composer Dave Perrico, PIN UP™ is
a fast-paced, swingin’ production that will transport audiences to a modern version of a
vintage era where red lips, corsets and garter stockings grace the most beautiful of
women.
Famous for her curvy figure and sumptuous smile, Sinclair won worldwide fame on the
pages of the iconic PLAYBOY® magazine, first as Miss October in 2010 and later as
PLAYBOY’s 2011 Playmate of the Year®. She has been featured on E!’s hit reality
television shows The Bunny House and Holly’s World, and was a special guest performer
for Crazy Horse Paris in 2010 and 2011. Sinclair also starred in a commercial for Bettie
Page Clothing as well as made numerous appearances across the country on the clothing
company’s behalf.
Critically acclaimed Stratosphere headliner Frankie Moreno is co-producer of the new
show, created the concept and scored a high-energy collection of swingin’ music for PIN
UP, which includes his contemporary twist on nostalgic covers plus several new originals.
Moreno was named “Best All-Around Performer” by the Las Vegas Review Journal’s
Best of Las Vegas in 2012, and “Best Strip Headliner” by Las Vegas Weekly. Moreno
recently wowed the nation with his stellar performance on ABC’s Dancing With The
Stars.
Lacey Schwimmer of ABC’s Dancing With The Stars fame choreographed the dance
sequences featuring a wide variety of dance styles weaved through the production’s
month-by-month vignettes, taking the audience on a visual and emotional journey of the
calendar year. The show will feature four gorgeous female dancers and one talented male
dancer.
PIN UP show time will be at 10:30 p.m., five nights a week, Thursday through Monday.
Tickets are $49.99 plus taxes, $10 more for VIP seats. Guests must be 21 or older to
