Dubai: Internationally acclaimed variety spectacle “WOW” is looking for the GCC’s most talented entertainers to perform live on stage at entertainment destination, The Rotunda. The talented artists will be asked to upload their best two-minute act online and send the link of the video to rotunda@caesarsdubai.ae and selected performers will be asked to perform live in front of a panel of reputable judges. The finalists’ videos will be uploaded on social media and open to public voting for the chance to perform live at The Rotunda before the start of the show on May 3rd 2019.

Have what it takes? The judges are looking for extraordinary circus and variety acts staged in a modern way. Performers from clowns, acrobats, trained animals, trapeze acts and dancers to jugglers, magicians, unicyclists and stunt-oriented artists are invited to upload an uncut two-minute video online and share the link of the video to rotunda@caesarsdubai.ae. All performers will be evaluated by a five-point rating system based on concept, costume, choice of makeup, choice of music, as well as presentation. The lucky winner will be asked to perform live at The Rotunda and take a bow with the rest of the cast at the end of the show.

The “WOW” show has extended its stay at The Rotunda – a dedicated entertainment destination within Caesars Palace Bluewaters Dubai. Having picked up praise and a nomination for Best Theatrical Performance in the Time Out Dubai Music & Nightlife Awards 2019 in its initial six week run, the show will continue to delight GCC fans until 4th of May 2019.

Transporting audiences into a world of mystery and fantasy, “WOW” is an entertainment phenomenon that morphs the ordinary into the extraordinary. Featuring over 30 acrobats, aerialists, dancers and performing artists who fly, flip, fold and dance, in an immersive theatrical experience that enraptures the audience from the dimming of the lights to the final curtain.  With multi-media three-dimensional projections accompanied by gravity-defying acrobatic feats, mesmerizing choreography, thrilling theatrical lighting and magnificent music; audiences are bound-to-be-wowed! 

Bringing epic entertainment to the UAE with exciting tickets packages starting from as low as AED 100 for tickets only and AED 280 for tickets inclusive of beverages, The Rotunda at Caesars Palace Bluewaters Dubai is a dedicated entertainment destination that will help change the entertainment landscape in the Middle East. Housed in a distinctive dome inspired by Rome’s famous Pantheon, the intimate 500+ seat 360-degree viewing venue is a temple to awe-inspiring live acts and immersive shows. Guests can expect an electrifying roster of legendary headliners, trendsetting theatre acts, mind-blowing magicians and hilarious comedians.

Located on Dubai’s newest island oasis, Caesars Bluewaters Dubai is the first ever non-gaming resort from the legendary Caesars Brand. Extolling the core brand ethos for every guest to live like a Caesar, it seems fitting Caesars Palace Bluewaters Dubai should have its own “Rotunda” which refers to a circular structure that is covered with a dome. Strongly associated with ancient Rome, the Pantheon is the world’s most iconic example, originally dedicated to Julius Caesar and believed to have served as a dynastic sanctuary for Augustus Caesar and his followers. Setting a trailblazing standard across the GCC, The Rotunda follows in the legendary 50-year legacy of its famous Las Vegas cousin when it comes to epic entertainment.
