Queens of Rock<\/h1>\n

ABSOLUTE PERFECTION<\/p>\n

In 1984, ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT<\/strong> aired a segment that would become one of the most notorious film reviews in history. Critic Leonard Maltin<\/em> was scheduled to discuss a remake of the beach comedy \u201cWhere The Boys Are.\u201d Instead of a detailed analysis, Maltin stood on a beach, tossed a reel of the film into the waves, and walked away wordlessly.<\/p>\n

If I were to follow Maltin\u2019s lead for my write-up of QUEENS OF ROCK<\/strong>, I could simply type \u201cIt\u2019s perfect!\u201d hit the \u201cpublish\u201d button, and then take an afternoon nap. It\u2019s really that good. But star Elyzabeth Diaga<\/em> and a sizzling live band (Alex Papa, Christian Brady, James Oleson, and Zach Throne) deserve a lot more than a stunt review from a lazy critic.<\/p>\n<\/div>

QUEENS OF ROCK<\/strong> is a journey through decades of hits by powerhouse female artists. Elyzabeth Diaga<\/em> walks a perfect line between tribute artist and featured headliner. The chart-toppers she delivers will be forever associated with their original artists, but Diaga flavors each song with her own fiery zest. You\u2019ll be tempted to sing along and dance at your seat, but you might miss the wonderful nuances of this star-making performance.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Performing at Mosaic Theater, QUEENS OF ROCK<\/strong> is a non-stop cavalcade of the music you know and love. The star, who hails from Quebec, sails across the stage in a wild collection of leather pants, capes, corsets, boots, and even roller-skates. A veritable symphony of lights, effects, and heart-pounding music, Queens<\/strong> is the kind of ambitious production that deserves as much attention as any star-packed headliner act.<\/p>\n<\/div>

It may be surprising to know that female rockers began as far back as the 1930s. That\u2019s when Sister Rosetta Tharpe<\/em> defied cultural norms, blending gospel, soul, and R & B into what we refer to as \u201cRock and Roll.\u201d A young black guitarist\/vocalist who caused quite a furor in her day, Sister Tharpe<\/em> nevertheless became known as the \u201cGodmother of Rock and Roll.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>

QUEENS OF ROCK<\/strong> pays tribute to Tharpe, then powers through decades of favorites from Heart<\/em>, The Pretenders<\/em>, Joan Jett<\/em>, Pat Benatar<\/em>, Tina Turner<\/em>, and Annie Lennox<\/em>. There are a few unexpected entries like En Vogue<\/em>, Evanescence,<\/em> Madonna,<\/em> and Lady Gaga<\/em> that\u2019ll keep you wondering who they\u2019ll conquer next.<\/p>\n

Fun is definitely one of the defining elements of Queens of Rock<\/strong>. Everyone involved seems to be having a fantastic time, and you will, too. So, when Elyzabeth Diaga<\/em> takes her throne to close out the show, you\u2019ll agree that Queens of Rock<\/strong> has earned her a place in Las Vegas entertainment royalty.<\/p>\n

QUEENS OF ROCK performs Thursday through Monday at 7 pm inside MOSAIC THEATER, 3765 Las Vegas Blvd.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>
