Get ready for goosebumps, the glitz and glam of Las Vegas, right here in Joburg!

With less than a one month to go until audiences can enjoy the glitz, the glam and sensational sounds of Las Vegas right here at home in Fourways, Johannesburg.

Experience the electrifying energy of Vegas nights, brought to life by the impressive 18-piece Johannesburg Big Band led by Adam Howard, alongside the electrifying vocals of Craig Urbani, Nadine, Timothy Moloi and Harry Sideropoulos.

Swingin’ Las Vegas 2025 will be on stage at The Teatro, Montecasino for 8 performances only, spanning two weekends in May from 16 – 25 May 2025.

With rehearsals underway, we caught up with Timothy Moloi…

What song are you most excited to sing in Swingin’ Las Vegas 2025 and why?
In a show where every song is a hit, it’s very difficult to choose just one song. But I’m really looking forward to one of my favourite standards, Sway which I’ll be singing with Nadine, Craig, Harry and the Johannesburg Big Band. And this song really showcases the band in a great way

What can the audience expect from your performance? And the show?
Audiences can expect to be taken on a musical ride through the time, with an interesting, exciting and diverse variety of songs that have formed the soundtrack to our lives. Looking forward to taking these evergreen standards, and giving them our own flavour.

Your all-time favourite artist that’s appeared in Las Vegas, who’s going to be featured in the show?
Another difficult choice, but one of my favourite artist who’s been in Las Vegas is the great Lionel Richie. Who doesn’t know or love all the music he’s given us through the years. It will be exciting to hear Lionel’s popular classics given the big band treatment by the Johannesburg Big Band.

What 3 songs are you most looking forward to hearing the other artists in the show, perform?
Celine Dion’s ‘It’s All Coming Back To Me’, a medley of Elton John songs and ‘Ain’t That A Kick In The Head’.

What excites you about returning to the show after last year’s season?
I’m very excited about Swingin Las Vegas returning to the Teatro, because the response to the first season last year was so overwhelming. The excitement and electricity in the show was palpable.. And I can’t wait to experience going down memory lane with the audience, young and old, enjoying fantastic timeless music and singing along with us. I’m also looking forward to sharing the stage with wonderful Nadine.
