Siblings Donny and Marie Osmond will reunite for a Las Vegas variety show beginning Sept. 9.
The stars of the former "Donny & Marie" variety show will perform Tuesday-Saturday for 26 weeks at the Flamingo Las Vegas hotel and casino. According to a hotel official, the 90-minute performances will be spread over an 8-month period.
The show is being billed as "a greatest-hits multimedia spectacle on a custom stage with multiple video screens and a cast of dancers," according to the AP. Tickets go on sale Monday and range in price from $85-$115.
"My version of a variety show has been what Vegas has known thus far," said comedian and impressionist Danny Gans, a Las Vegas mainstay who will co-present the show with Chip Lightman of GansLight Entertainment. "What we have now is a true variety show which conveys the real essence of America and the country's love of homegrown talent."
The Osmonds are no strangers to the Las Vegas stage. In the 1970s, the entire musical family shared a marquee with Elvis Presley at the Old International hotel, now the Las Vegas Hilton.
"Donny and Marie are timeless entertainers and cultural icons," said Don Marrandino, president of the Flamingo Las Vegas.
Toni Braxton was the latest act at the Flamingo. "Toni Braxton: Revealed" was set to end a two-year run in August, but went on hiatus after the singer was hospitalized for chest pain April 7. She is scheduled to resume May 6.
