Awakening is the current marquee theater production at Wynn Las Vegas. It is set in a 360-degree theater and includes illusions, music, dance and puppetry. It replaced Wynn’s long-running show, La Rêve, following five years of development and $120 million in production cost, including a custom-built 60-foot stage for theater in the round, with custom LED screens built into the stage. The show’s recorded narration is provided by Academy Award winner Anthony Hopkins and led by producers Baz Halpin, Bernie Yuman and Michael Curry.
