Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - There's always something going on at Act II STAGES. Cool Summer fun can be had every Wednesday night with a 2x1 Happy Hour starting at 6:00 pm, followed by Us Two and their live band at 7:30, and Bob's Karaoke Party at 8:00; and preparations for the Winter entertainment season are in the works.

Act II is excited to announce that the first show of the 2018-2019 season will be the blockbuster stage play, Little Shop of Horrors, and it is set to open on October 31. Save the date!

Prior to the arrival of The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin, Howard Ashman and Alan Menken created one of the most successful musicals of all time: Little Shop of Horrors. It is the tale of a down-and-out Skid Row floral assistant, the girl he loved, and the man-eating plant that threatened to tear their world apart.

This hilarious horror/comedy/rock/musical is one of the longest-running Off-Broadway shows and has become a household name, thanks to a highly successful film version and a fantastic musical score. Directed by the amazing Alfonso Lopez, it stars José ("Joey") Martin Ramirez, who took Vallarta by storm as "Brad" in Rocky Horror Show last season, and the beautiful, talented Maria Rose, who played "Magenta" in "Rocky Horror" - and also starred in a slew of other Act II productions.

THE STARS ARE SHINING EVERY WEDNESDAY AT ACT II

Puerto Vallarta is a great place to visit any time - even during the hot, humid days of summer! Wednesdays, however, are THE day to go to the beautiful, air-conditioned venue at Act II Stages, with two excellent entertainment choices:

Us Two and their LIVE BAND
Wednesdays at 7:30 pm in The Red Room

"Us Two," Daniel Celis and Noemi Plascencia (and their live band), continues to perform on Wednesday nights at 7:30 pm. Famous for "taking classics and bringing them to life," Vallarta has fallen in love with this dynamic and talented duo with their sexy styling, harmonious vocals and lively band.

Named this year's "Best Musical Group of the Season," Us Two has quickly become the #1 band in Puerto Vallarta, and they will be the new Resident Artists at ACT II next season! Shows sell out, so get your tickets NOW!

Here's what people are saying about Us Two:

"Just returned home from spending two hours watching Daniel, Naomi and their excellent band. They are all superb professional musicians. The quality of their music and their entertainment and rapport with the audience were excellent. Six excellent musicians playing for two hours at a cost of $350 pesos has got to be the best value for money. Many thanks to all of them!" - John W, Puerto Vallarta - 5 out of 5 Stars - Trip Advisor

"If you want to get energized, laugh, cry, and feel music go deep into your nostalgic memories, then go see 'UsTwo.' Daniel and Noemi 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." - Harvm, 5 out of 5 Stars - TripAdvisor
