Las Vegas: William Shatner, a.k.a. Capt. Kirk, to perform at MGM
Attention, “Star Trek” fans: Capt. James T. Kirk is coming in for a landing … in Las Vegas.
William Shatner’s one-man show, “Shatner’s World,” will play June 19-21 at the MGM Grand’s Hollywood Theatre in Las Vegas.
Shatner played Capt. James T. Kirk in 79 episodes of the “Star Trek” TV series from 1966 to 1969.
Shatner, 84, is best known these days — to travelers anyway — as the frontman for Priceline. He’s been touring the country since his show’s stint on Broadway in 2012.
The Hollywood Reporter gave it a mixed review. “The rambling monologue … is infused with enough one-liners to fill a stand-up act,” critic Frank Scheck wrote. “Not all of them land, but his joy in delivering them is infectious.”
Shatner called the show “one of the highlights of my life.” “At the curtain call, the audiences’ reaction, their love and appreciation, moved me to tears,” he said in a statement.
Tickets, which cost $69.99, $79.99 and $99.99, are available online or by calling (866) 740-7711.
