"Leadvilleor Bust" is acelebration of the original girlie shows enjoyed by the miners and settlers ofthe Old West. As an almost lost art, the origins of Burlesque were naughty andbawdy shows full of double entendre and gorgeous dancing girls in tights.Before burlesque became "strip-tease," old time burlesque shows were simply"tease."

ReynaVon Vett and Hell's Belles dance and sing in tight four-part harmonies to fun,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)," "Press My Button (Ring My Bell)" and many more...

ReynaVon Vett is an accomplished singer and actress who performed for over onemillion guests as Tanya in the smash Broadway hit Mamma Mia! at the Mandalay Bay Hotel andCasino in Las Vegas for over 3 years. Most recently, she and her Belles(Elizabeth Welch, Michelle Sergeeff and Melinda Smart) appeared in the DenverCenter for the Performing Arts' production of The Taffetas.

Reynasaid: I loved singing with these girls so much that I incorporated them intomy show. If you liked The Taffetas, you'll love Reyna Von Vettand Hell's Belles in "Leadville or Bust." Whether it's music fromNifty 50's or Naughty 90's, these girls are gorgeous and they can sing! I amjust so thrilled to have them singing with me once again. This show is a dreamcome true!"

Thereis another Colorado connection - The music of "Leadville or Bust" was arranged by Wendell Vaughn,the Country Dinner Playhouse's 13-year musical director who is currentlyconducting the national tour of Mamma Mia!
