Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - Between all-new shows and the return of audience favorites, Act II continues to 'Rock' Puerto Vallarta with the best season of entertainment that this town has ever seen. And the hits just keep on coming at STAGES, where you can enjoy live entertainment in all three venues every night of the week.

Season 5 kicked off with Act II's newest stage play, The Rocky Horror Show, which has been extended by popular demand! This ultra-campy cult classic is a humorous tribute to the science fiction and horror B movies of the late 1940s through the early 1970's, and tells the story of a newly engaged couple getting caught in a storm and coming to the home of a mad transvestite scientist Dr. Frank N. Furter, fabulously portrayed by Vallarta favorite, Gabe Arciniega. Directed by the amazing and talented Alfonso López, with choreography by Kami Desilets, this incredible show is hilarious, gripping and haunting, all at the same time. Presented every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday at 7:00 pm, The Rocky Horror Show could very well be the season's biggest hit. Tickets for every performance sell out quickly, so click HERE to get yours NOW!

Paul Fracassi: "Walk Like a Man"
Performing every Wednesday at 7:30 pm

This "Jersey Kid" from Toronto, Canada, managed to create a big fuss up in Canada as a finalist in Canadian Idol. Shortly thereafter, he created a "big fuss" in Puerto Vallarta, too, as we fell in love with this wonderful, new singing sensation! He has become an international star and is much in demand in Mexico, Canada, the U.S., and Europe. Paul's vocal range has been compared to the great crooners of the American songbook, and especially the high vocal range of Frankie Valli. It is no wonder that this artist chose to present the music of The Four Seasons for his show, including Dawn, Rag Doll, Can't Take My Eyes Off of You, and Walk Like a Man. Paul handles the Frankie Valli songs as if Frankie Valli himself was on stage singing them in his early years on The Ed Sullivan Show!

Act II is very excited about the 2017-2018 season! Featuring 45 different shows, many of Vallarta's favorites have already returned to our stages, but there's also some hot, new surprises in store! For a complete description of all our upcoming shows, go to act2pv.com.

Tickets to all shows can be purchased online at actiientertainment.com, at the box office, which opens at 10 am on show days, or at the 2nd Box Office location, across the street from Garbos on Pulpito Street in the Romantic Zone.
