The Las Vegas show ran for a record-breaking 35 years—from July 1981 until its closure in February 2016—the longest-running production at the time. Mackie wrote on Instagram that the show’s 1,000+ costumes were inspired by the Ziegfeld Follies, the series of grand Broadway revues that ran intermittently from 1907 until 1957.
“The enduring allure of showgirls and the glamour they represent continues to fascinate us all,” Mackie tells Vogue. “The spectacle of Jubilee! stands as a testament to the timeless appeal of opulence in performance.”
