Tripadvisor Reviews:

"Saw this fantastic show opening week! We had such a great time with this show! From start to finish it was a fun feel good time. The two performers were spot on in voice and dancing. High energy from two adorable actors that have amazing chemistry. We are going to try to see it again before end of its run. Definitely recommend for an upbeat good time."

"My wife and I had a chance to see one of PV's great shows, 'Twist and Shout,' and we loved every minute from start to finish. Excellent performances from both singers bringing back the great music from the 50's and 60's. This show would be great for music lovers of all ages. Do yourself a favour and see this show!"

"Visiting Puerto Vallarta I had the great decision to come into a beautiful cabaret with one of the most amazing shows I ever have seen there, 'Twist and Shout.' The two singers are great actors, are full of energy, great voices and amazing dancing. For sure if you are visiting Vallarta you can't miss this amazing show, it's like a time travel to a funny and full of emotions night! Totally a MUST!"

Plus, many aspiring actors that are now appearing in Act II's productions have been "discovered" at Act II's Karaoke Party.

We invite you to join your hosts, Marsha Ward Ross and Danny Mininni, every Tuesday evening during the summer for a totally fun and COOL evening!

Tripadvisor Reviews:

"So when first moving to Puerto Vallarta, I was in search of a theater. I was invited personally by the owner to come to karaoke nights. I was introduced to amazing locals and have since made great friends and found a home in the Act II family."

"I was able to only visit for the karaoke night, but it was very enjoyable, with a large number of seriously impressive singers. Service was great, surroundings plush, overall a great place. Well done Act II."

"The Best of ABBA and Elton John"
featuring Us Two (and their LIVE BAND)
Winner, "Best Band 2019"
Every Wednesday - 7:30 pm
Tickets are available at act2pv.com


After its incredibly successful, SOLD-OUT RUN this year, Us Two is thrilled to be able to present their #1 show, "The Best of ABBA and Elton John" during the summer season!

In a musical tribute to the timeless music of two unforgettable acts, ABBA and Elton John, which began in the 1970’s, Us Two will perform songs that you remember, such as Mama Mia, Dancing Queen, Chiquitita, Sad Song, Candle in the Wind, Rocket Man, and more. Their repertoire changes with each performance, but these amazing vocalists (and their band) will treat you to an unforgettable evening of music!

ABBA and its flamboyant costumes and catchy music, is considered to be one of the top musical groups in history, having sold over 500 million albums! Elton John first became famous for his oversize glasses and outrageous outfits, but his enduring popularity and incredible talent have earned him five Grammy awards, induction into the Rock ‘n Roll Hall of Fame, and sales of over 300 million albums! Together, these two acts epitomized the soft rock/pop musical sounds that became hugely popular in the 70's, and is still loved around the world today.

"The Best of ABBA and Elton John," show has propelled Us Two into the #1 spot in Puerto Vallarta entertainment! Shows sell out - get your tickets NOW at act2pv.com!

Tripadvisor Reviews:

"Saw the ABBA/Elton John show tonight @Act 2. Many of the best songs from Mama Mia and Elton John's classics. Both performers have outstanding Broadway worthy voices and stage presence that is not only entertaining but deep down heartwarming. I didn't want to see the show come to an end! If you like Elton and ABBA...do not miss this show while in PV. The instrumentalists, ie, keyboardist, guitarists, and drummer were so talented they could be a show themselves!"

"We went to see Us Two in concert, performing Abba and Elton John. It is done in [The Red Room] a very small, intimate theater. Us Two are incredible musician/singers. They had the crowd on its feet singing along and cheering... If you are in Puerto Vallarta do not miss this entertainment venue and Us Two in particular."

"Backed by an excellent 4 piece band, Us Two put on an amazing performance of ABBA and Elton John hits. Daniel and Noemi sang individually and as a duet, and had the place rocking! First rate entertainment at a very reasonable price in an up-close-and-personal setting. Don't miss them."

"If you want to get energized, laugh, cry, and feel music go deep into your nostalgic memories, then go see "UsTwo" Daniel and Noemi! [They] have an incredible blend of harmony, and add the other fantastic musicians in this group, and the result is awesome. This is one experience that you won't forget. This will be the frosting on the cake for your beautiful Puerto Vallarta vacation."
