Olivia Newton-John Set for a Las Vegas Run at the Flamingo

Olivia Newton-John will be heading to Vegas, baby, in April as the star of “Summer Nights.” The singer/actress is headlining a new show at Flamingo Las Vegas, kicking off on April 8, 2014 and running through the end of August. Newton-John will be performing her hits in the Flamingo’s Donny & Marie Showroom, promising fans she’ll be taking them on a musical journey through her lengthy career.

“We look forward to welcoming Olivia to Flamingo Las Vegas, where so many other iconic artists have performed,” said Eileen Moore, regional president of the famed center Strip resort. “She has such a broad appeal and you can count all of us here at Flamingo among her adoring fan base; she’s the ‘one that we want’ and we can’t wait for her to call Flamingo home.”

“I am thrilled to be able to call Las Vegas home for a while,” says Olivia. “I have performed here many times through the years and have had nothing but wonderful memories and I look forward to even more fun at the Flamingo. I am especially thrilled that a portion of every ticket sold will benefit the Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Centre.”

Newton-John is a breast cancer survivor who founded the Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Centre in partnership with Austin Health. 10 years of fundraising and $200 million after it was conceived, the Cancer and Wellness Centre opened in 2012 “for cancer treatment, education, training, and research as well as a dedicated wellness center.”

Backed by an eight-piece band, Newton-John will be performing such hits as “Have You Never Been Mellow,” “Let Me Be There,” “If You Love Me Let Me Know,” “I Honestly Love You,” “Hopelessly Devoted to You,” “You’re The One That I Want,” and “Summer Nights.”
