<div>Help Bring Shangri-La-La to New York - Shangri-La-La is a fast, funny comedy musical about two immigrants who reinvented themselves, transformed Las Vegas, and built a rhinestone empire of magic, ambition, and white tigers.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Inspired by true events, the show explores the making of Siegfried &amp; Roy’s legendary public image—and the machinery of spectacle, power, loyalty, and illusion behind the spotlight. The full-length version also draws in part on a real-life lawsuit, using courtroom satire to examine what happens when private conflict collides with celebrity mythology.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Following an April 2026 New York presentation through Back Door to Broadway, the musical is now moving toward its next New York appearances:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Rogue Theater Festival, Digital Edition — July 2026
</div>
<div>Midtown International Theatre Festival — July 25 and 26, 2026
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>These performances are an important opportunity to introduce Shangri-La-La to New York theatergoers, producers, industry professionals, and supporters who can help the show move toward a longer run.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>But producing independent theater in New York is expensive.
