in the TV show. We are thrilled that he will perform at The Mirage
where millions more will be able to enjoy him." "We're absolutely

impressions. Fator and his puppets, Cowboy Walter, Emma Taylor and
Winston the Impersonating Turtle, effortlessly perform the singing
styles of an eclectic group of stars including Elvis, Maroon Five,
Nat King Cole and Natalie Cole, James Blunt and Marvin Gaye. Terry
