Las Vegas (November 8, 2023) – In the space of three days, Spiegelworld has announced a brand-new Las Vegas show, been forced to change the show’s name, and is now considering extending the season to meet demand. Regardless of the last-minute tire change, LIGHTS OUT! (formerly known as Box Box) will definitely be going ahead on Wednesday, November 15, inside Superfrico at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas.
Spiegelworld’s Impresario Extraordinaire Ross Mollison said, “There’s a lot of interest in the little car race next week that is stopping Las Vegas traffic and sending show producers into a panic about the disruption to live entertainment on the Strip. It’s a global event loaded with corporate sponsorships, naming rights and intellectual property that has lawyers wringing their hands in glee. But rather than running away from it, Spiegelworld decided to embrace the moment and have a shot at doing what we do best. Throwing on some drinks, pizza and laughs. Who else is gung-ho enough to present a new show in the middle of all this?”
A few months ago, Spiegelworld assembled some of Los Angeles’ most dangerously funny comic artists and locked them away for a month in its own Circus Town of Nipton, California. Their mission was to create material for a tiny, stupid, fun show that explored why human beings are obsessed with the idea of very fast cars driving around a track. Ross Mollison, a trailblazer of circus, comedy and high energy dining, is also a superfan of the sport.
“As previously announced, we called this experimental show Box Box which is another name for a pit stop,” Mollison said. “Suddenly we had a line of angry lawyers knocking on our door, threatening to sue us because the name was too similar to a New York City adult cabaret nightclub, a Californian storage company, and a boxing gym in Pasadena.
“I said, ‘Relax guys, this is just a little bit of late-night fun for an intimate crowd, celebrating a landmark Las Vegas sporting event with some cocktails, pizza and a few laughs.’ So, we just changed the name to LIGHTS OUT!, which means the race has started. Hopefully we don’t get sued by the NV Energy company.”
LIGHTS OUT! will be presented inside Superfrico at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, next to the OPM Theatre. Doors will open at 11pm and reservations are available at Spiegelworld.com.
