On Monday night, the cast and crew of the female impersonator show “Evening at La Cage” at the Riviera were notified by owner Norbert Aleman that he regrettably was being forced to shut down the long-running production.
Headliner Frank Marino and his fellow female impersonators received the news as the show ended at 9 p.m.
There were weeklong negotiations with Riviera executives and the show’s producers, but because of falling ticket sales and no sign of an immediate recovery for hotel bookings, it was decided to close the show.
