Beneath the neon riots of the Vegas Strip, where fantasy and reality flirt until dawn, something darker stirs for 2026. Shock-rock pioneer Alice Cooper joins forces with Criss Angel, the world’s king of illusion, for a limited two-night engagement titled Welcome to Our Nightmare at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino. Designed for the Criss Angel Theater, this special event rewrites what a Vegas show can be — a high-velocity blend of music, theatre, and mind-bending magic.
What to Expect
Expect zero subtlety and maximum spectacle: 90 minutes of rock anthems and immersive illusions. Cooper’s setlist promises staples like “Poison,” “School’s Out,” “I’m 18,” and “You and Me,” while Angel’s signature feats push perception past its limits. The room swells with camp horror, electric energy, and two showmen daring you to look away — and knowing you won’t.
Legacies Collide
For Cooper, it’s an extension of the gothic opera he forged on tour stages worldwide — snakes, guillotines, stage blood, and a gravelled voice steeped in five decades of history. For Angel, it’s the next leap in spectacle, fusing grand illusion with the voltage of rock theatre — the kind of audacity that’s seen him suspend the impossible, break records, and redefine the modern magic show.
