Sapphire Sirens at Harrah’s Reno

Devine Temptation Revealed!

Definition: Siren – “A woman who is considered to be dangerously seductive.”

For years, The Sapphire Lounge at Harrah’s Reno has functioned as a late night entertainment venue in the forms of a high-end martini bar, a quasi nightclub/disco, a karaoke bar, and a an open mic/comedy club. Today, it is breathing hot new life from its pulsating walls with an adult burlesque revue called Sirens – a visually pleasing combination of seductive dance, enticing lighting, and sensual vocals.

Six sexy “Sirens” (the lead dancer’s from Greg London’s Iconman show in Sammy’s Showroom and few other leggy ladies) take the stage every Friday and Saturday night from 10pm to 1am. Performances feature a balanced mix of mesmerizing dance set to popular songs. The show is big on talent and skimpy on costumes, both of which are a good thing . Many of the dance numbers feature the lovely ladies in varying degrees of undress (a.k.a. they are mostly topless). I am pleased to note that the majority of the lasses seemed to be natural endowed, which is a nice departure from the abundance of obvious artificial assets at many local adult entertainment spots.

Surprisingly, the audience was a fairly equal mix of men and women, and there were a number of couples there as well. So for an evening of intoxicating dance, super singing, and unbridled sexiness (without the brass poles), make a date to see Sirens. Just $10 gets you in the door for the entire evening.

RP Tip: A full bar serves up some of Reno’s best martinis and other libations.
