Home to some of the top live shows on The Strip, The V Theater pads its stage for the performing paws of The World Famous Popovich Comedy Pet Theater, a favorite of families and audiences of The Tonight Show, Late Show with David Letterman, and America’s Got Talent. Gregory Popovich leads a four-legged cast of 15 cats and 10 dogs, all former strays before becoming Vegas stars and, in some cases, internationally ranked poker players. Pups propel scooters across the stage and double-dutch jump rope as cats shimmy over parallel bars. European-style clowns and mesmerizing jugglers complement bouts of barking and meowing. General-admission tickets rewards early arrivers with prime views, just as arriving early to school rewards pupils with teachers’ pre-homeroom fencing duels. $1 from every ticket sold goes to local pet shelters.
