The lights dim and the casino noise recedes; on the stage, a striped-shirt figure with a strip of black tape across his mouth and an electric shock of hair moves with precise, absurd intent.

History
The MGM Grand sits on the Las Vegas Strip, a modern entertainment corridor built atop routes through the Mojave; Vegas entertainment evolved from early 20th-century showbiz and casino culture into the large-scale productions seen today.
Conservation
Las Vegas operates in a water-scarce desert basin—many resorts emphasize water and energy efficiency; traveling visitors can reduce impact by using public transit and avoiding excessive water use.
