Viral Live with Sarah Hester Ross

MUSIC: VIRAL LIVE WITH SARAH HESTER ROSS Following a notable initial run of an all-original live music and comedy show at Neonopolis entertainment stronghold Notoriety, singer, pianist and dirty joke expert Sarah Hester Ross is back with something different, inspired by her own pandemic-era success on social media. Viral Live sees Ross hosting an alt-comedy variety show featuring a rotating cast of “internet all-stars” you might have seen on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, including comedian and Trump impersonator John Di Domenico, songwriter and comedian Tom McGovern, singing prankster puppet Toiley T. Paper, “Mind Noodler” Matt Donnelly and many more. Every Thursday night show (stretching through March) will be different, but definitely loaded with laughs and music. 9 p.m., $35, Notoriety Live, notorietylive.com. –Brock Radke

ARTS: LOVE IN THE DUNES BOOK LAUNCH The Las Vegas Writes series is one of this town’s stealth treasures: a yearly anthology featuring an ever-changing assortment of Southern Nevada-based artists and writers, each bringing their individual perspective to a specific topic. This installment—the 12th in the series—is Love in the Dunes: Las Vegas Writers on Passion and Heartache, and it features the talents of Emily Bordelove, Melissa Bowles-Terry, Bob Dancer, Kim Idol, Heather Lang-Cassera, Nicole Minton, Jen Nails, Mauricio Ortiz Zaragoza, Krystal Ramirez, Brett Riley, Nicholas Russell, Tonya Todd and compilation editor Jarret Keene. The book aims to answer the question “Is love possible in Sin City?”, though it’s possible the book will simply unearth more questions, because both love and Las Vegas are like that. Hear the authors read from their works, and secure your own copy of the book, at this Nevada Humanities-sponsored event. 6:30 p.m., free, the Writer’s Block, thewritersblock.org. –Geoff Carter

MUSIC: LUKE BRYAN: VEGAS The first two residencies to open at Resorts World have easily eclipsed expectations. Now it’s Luke Bryan’s turn, and if you didn’t already know, this country music chart-topper and American Idol judge might be one of the best-positioned artists ever to hit the Vegas stage. He’s got brands for days, from Two Lane beer and hard seltzer to Luke’s 32 Bridge restaurant, bar and live music venue in Nashville. Last month he held his seventh Crash My Playa music festival on a private Mexican beach before announcing his Raised Up Right tour, launching in June and hitting more than 30 cities through October. Even for an artist and personality who has already made his mark, Vegas provides an opportunity for Bryan to take things to another level. February 11-12 & 16, 8 p.m., $78+, Resorts World Theater, axs.com. –Brock Radke

He’ll bring his next persona, the ushanka-wearing Tyler Baudelaire, to the stage for this Call Me If You Get Lost tour stop, with a stacked undercard that includes West Coast rap sensation Vince Staples, R&B singer-songwriter Kali Uchis (of the top-streamed Tyler collab “See You Again”) and Teezo Touchdown, a pop-punk Texas rapper with nail hair. February 12, $99-$178, 7 p.m., Michelob Ultra Arena, axs.com. –Amber Sampson

MISC: TEASE: A BURLESQUE REVUE Mob bosses, showgirls, neon signs, sex. Las Vegas boasts such a rich history, we need a museum for everything. One of our most glamorous additions has been the Burlesque Hall of Fame, a museum dedicated to preserving the legacy of burlesque and all its glory. Thousands of costumes, photos and stage props reside there, and on February 13, the museum will bring that history to Tease: A Burlesque Revue at the Space. A cast of burlesque legends, accompanied by some of today’s top entertainers will share the stage for a sexy evening that also promises a ton of laughs. All proceeds benefit the Burlesque Hall of Fame. 8 p.m., $20-$40, the Space, thespacelv.com. –Amber Sampson

PARTY: TYGA 10:30 p.m., Omnia, taogroup.com.

MUSIC: FRANKIE MORENO 7 p.m., Myron’s, thesmithcenter.com.

PARTY: APHRODITE & KUMARION 10 p.m., Discopussy, discopussydtlv.com.

ARTS: THE BAND’S VISIT Number of Tony awards won by David Yazbek and Itamar Moses’ The Band’s Visit: 10, including Best Musical. Number of times this story has been told anew: three (first as a 2007 film directed by Eran Kolirin, and then as a 2016 Off-Broadway production based on the film, and then as a 2017 Broadway production adapted from the Off-Broadway show.) Number of years we’ve waited for this celebrated Broadway hit to come to the Smith Center’s Reynolds Hall: way too many, as the pandemic slowed its arrival. Now, at long last, we can see what happens to the Alexandria Ceremonial Police Orchestra when a misunderstood Egyptian accent re-routes their tour from the Israeli city of Petah Tikva to the small desert town of Bet Hatikva. Number of chances you’ll have to see a production The New York Times called “one of the most ravishing musicals you will ever be seduced by … an honest-to-God musical for grown-ups”: eight, spread over five days. February 15-20, times vary, $30-$148. Reynolds Hall, thesmithcenter.com. –Geoff Carter

PARTY: DEUX TWINS 10:30 p.m., EBC at Night, wynnsocial.com.

SPORTS: VEGAS GOLDEN KNIGHTS VS. COLORADO AVALANCHE Fans of both teams remember: The Golden Knights fell behind 0-2 in last year’s playoff series before reeling off four straight victories—outscoring Colorado 17-8 in those wins—to oust the favored Avalanche from the playoffs and advance to the NHL’s Final Four. When the rivalry picks up again at T-Mobile Arena, Vegas will find itself up against arguably the hottest team in the league. At press time, Colorado had gone 15-2 since the calendar flipped to 2022, and with Avs stars like Nathan MacKinnon, Mikko Rantanen and Cale Makar flying around the ice, capable of scoring from all angles, the Golden Knights will likely need one of their best efforts of the season to come out on top in this battle of division leaders. 7 p.m., T-Mobile Arena, axs.com. –Spencer Patterson
