He is a local Las Vegas legend who came to Las Vegas from New York with a dream. Frank Marino is the star of Divas Las Vegas, a female celebrity impersonator show where men dress in drag to create very realistic illusions of the legendary artists they portray. On Sunday, Jan. 19, was the first time in Frank Marinos 30 year history, as star of the show, that he was able to watch his own show. He had just recently had surgery and was not able to perform that night. As it seems, fate had aligned, that same night none other than Neil Patrick Harris decided to check out Divas Las Vegas to see if he could get some pointers for his upcoming role as Hedwig in the Broadway production of John Cameron Mitchell's cult musical, Hedwig and the Angry Inch. Frank Marino and Neil Patrick Harris watched Divas Las Vegas together and when we asked Frank Marino what he thought of his own show! He said, "They were great!" Frank said Neil had a great time hanging back stage with "the girls" who also gave him pointers about walking in heels and let him try on various wigs. He said he learned one thing about Neil though, "he doesn't really like it when you bring up his role as Doogie Houser." "My boyfriend brought it up and had to reassure him that he was so lucky to have had a role that has become so iconic and lasted the test of time" When asked what Frank thought about Neil Patrick Harris starring as Hedwig he said, "I was a little confused, until I saw his performances on the Tony Awards" "He is very, very talented!" You can see Frank Marino in Divas Las Vegas at The Quad resort and casino. www.thequadlv.com www.frankmarino.com You can see Neil Patrick Harris in Hedwig and the Angry Inch starting March 29th at the Belasco Theatre in New York City.
