Live theater tends to be more thrilling than film, largely due to the heightened odds of seeing someone flub a line or deliver a stirring monologue while sitting in your lap. Witness truly dramatic close-ups with this Groupon to see Tony and Tina's Wedding at Bally’s Las Vegas Hotel & Casino. For $45, you get one general-admission ticket for any upcoming show (up to a $99.99 value, including all fees). Shows take place seven days a week starting at 7 p.m.

When it premiered off-Broadway in 1988, Tony and Tina’s Wedding quickly gathered a following for its unconventional send-up of the Italian-American wedding between the Nunzio and Vitale families. The interactive performance has since been lauded by almost every major publication. Covert performers are placed at the tables of seated audience members, with each guest having a one-of-a-kind theatergoing experience based on seating, interactivity, and promising to not dig their own plot holes. A robust Italian dinner and slices of decadent wedding cake precede a rush onto the theater’s sprawling dance floor, where toe-tapping tunes bridge the gap between the Nunzio and Vitale clans. Like jokes from a cigar-chomping uncle, the reception includes appearances from a pregnant bridesmaid, a stripper girlfriend, and a drunk priest, with all of them speeding the evening’s festivities to an unpredictable and side-splitting finale.

A monolith of massive television screens and neon light stand sentry over the treasure trove of opulence found inside Bally’s Las Vegas Hotel & Casino. Under the glittering chandeliers await an expansive gaming floor, 11 dining establishments, and a parade of live music, theater, and dance-revue events. A laid-back dress code allows visitors to walk in freely without shining their shoes or emptying the water out of their scuba suits. Sully’s bar and the Indigo Lounge offer distinct, but equally luxurious, spots to enjoy a cocktail, and might be graced with live performances by the likes of Taylor Hicks or by medley-makers Jamm.
