Legends In Concert opened to a capacity crowd inside Foxwoods Resort Casino’s Fox Theatre on Tuesday June 2nd.
Rob Caudill as Rod Stewart opened the show and set the tone with his raucous opening set which included the well-known closer, ”Maggie May”, that had an eager and willing audience singing along.
The opening night performance also included spot-on performances from Cher, Tom Jones, Whitney Houston, and Elvis Presley tributes. Cher, portrayed by Sandra Wood, was a crowd-pleaser with a guest participating on a fun-loving rendition of Sonny and Cher’s “I Got You Babe” that had the standing-room only crowd in stitches. Next on was Steve McCoy, who like the real Tom Jones, had ladies swooning in their seats as he ripped through all of Tom Jones’ classics with unfettered passion. Whitney Houston tribute, Jazmine, took the stage next belting out all of Whitney’s greatest hits and ending off with her biggest chart-topper, “I Will Always Love You.” In fitting Legends In Concert style, the last tribute to take front and center stage for the evening was Leo Days as Elvis Presley. Leo, a semi-finalist in the Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist Contest, churned out hit after hit from the King of Rock-n-Roll in grand fashion. Leo brought the crowd to their feet on several occasions during his closing set.
The evening concluded with a rousing finale’ followed by a thunderous standing ovation! Each legend brought a unique excitement to their signature act on this maiden voyage with Foxwoods. All of these top-notch tributes combined with dazzling dancers, remarkable backing singers, and a heavy-hitting, no holds barred rock band made for a classic opening night at our newest venue.
Legends In Concert will be appearing all summer long at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Ledyard, CT. Click here for show tickets, daily line-ups, show times, and more information.

Just watched “legends in concert” at Foxwoods…It was really good!
home from seeing Legends in Concert @ Foxwoods…good times as usual
Just saw Legends at Foxwoods (July 3 show). Had previously seen the show in June.
As a New Yorker, who has access to some of the best entertainment in the world, I’d have to say that nothing comes close to Legends for performance quality and value.
All the talent is first-rate and the show’s production (dancers, bands) are beyond great. My wife and I were especially impressed with Damian Brantley as Michael Jackson. He was sensational, and showed great dignity in his presentation… GO SEE THIS SHOW, and if you don’t enjoy it, you must be one unhappy person.
The show is very good. One of the best I have seen. I recommend it highly. It truly is a Vegas show direct from the strip, not like every other show that uses the line “Direct from Vegas.”The show is very good. One of the best I have seen. I recommend it highly.

I saw the Legends show and it was a very good. They had MJ booked to come there before he died so this is not about taking advantage of the publicity. The guy did a great job and it was done respectfully. The other acts were very good as well
I just saw the “legends” show on July 12th and I was “blown away” by Damien Brantley’s impersonation of Michael Jackson! When he paused during his act to pay tribute to MJ, It brought tears to my eyes. Damien should be really proud of his performance and to do it with dignity and perfection is an added bonus!!!! I will be coming back to see this show and will definatly spread the work that this show is well worth the time and money!!!! By the way all the other performances were great also!!!!!
We have seen both shows so far and have tickets for the third. Simply amazing. Hope Foxwoods keeps them for a long time. Used to go to AC but have not seen the show being there this year. Thanks for a wonderful time and we loved our first experience at Foxwoods Casino.
First time to Foxwoods and first time to Legends In Concert. Our friends have always told us about the show as they take it in every year on their vacation in Myrtle Beach. We decided to go and were simply amazed at this show. Every act portray their Legend with the sound, look and manners of the real star. If you can, go see the show. We guarantee you won’t be disappointed. We ate dinner at Cedars and that was wonderful as well. We are not much at gambling but enjoyed the slots while our $100 lasted! We will be back for the next line-up and look forward to seeing Garth Brooks and Bette.
While I was on vacation saw the Legends in Concert show at Foxwoods. Great show. Highly recommend it.
I went to the Legends show tonight at Foxwoods and it was awesome.
I saw this show last night and it was Amazing!
