New 'PLAY' dates: Katy Perry adds new summer shows to her Las Vegas residency
Katy Perry just added 16 new shows to her new Las Vegas residency, "PLAY."
The "Smile" singer will now perform three dates in May, plus five shows in June, two shows in July and six dates in August.
Tickets for the new dates at the Resorts World Theatre go on sale this Saturday at 10 a.m. PT -- the same day she returns to "Saturday Night Live" for her fourth appearance as musical guest.
In addition, tickets for Perry's performances on March 2, 4, 5, 11, 12, 16, 18 and 19 are currently on sale.
Perry previously spoke to "Good Morning America" about why the show is so special: "A lot of my shows have been, you know, figuratively larger than life ... but I play a doll in this show, so everything is like, three times the size of me."
"It's 'Honey; I Shrunk the Kids' meets 'Pee-wee's Playhouse,'" she added. "We know what our audience is -- people are here to have fun, people are here to let loose."
"PLAY" features the singer performing all her hits as a doll that goes through various adventures before finally finding her forever home with the right child. And since she is playing a doll, all the props and set pieces are larger than life: They include a 16-foot-tall toilet, a 12-foot-tall bed, a 10-foot-tall cereal box, 6-foot-tall toilet paper rolls and a giant 11-foot-long, 12-foot-high snail.
Here are Perry's new "PLAY" dates:
- May 27, 28, 29
- June 3, 4, 8, 10, 11
- July 29, 30
- Aug. 3, 5, 6, 10, 12, 13
