Wayne: Up Close & Personal

Wayne Newton remains the definitive Las Vegas performer, an iconic crooner whose name has even been honored on a road at the citys international airport. Since his childhood days singing beside his older brother Jerry, he has captivated audiences with his magnetic stage presence. After establishing themselves in Vegas performing six nightly shows for six nights weekly as young siblings, Wayne began building toward legendary status. Over many decades, he cemented his position as a top-tier entertainer, evolving from the boyish singer of the 1960s into the debonair Mr. Entertainer of Las Vegas. He came to dominate Sin City, at one point becoming its highest-paid performer. In total, he has performed in over 30,000 live shows and continues to do so.
