Controversy

Animal cruelty allegations surfaced in May 2016, when video footage of the backstage conditions were released. Las Vegas TV station KTNV reported that "The video shows pigeons crammed in small plastic crates, two goats held together in such a small pen they can only move their heads, a wall of cats and lots of dogs barking. Elsewhere you can see animal enclosures stacked and packed on top of each other."

Mistreatment of animals was also reported by eyewitness audience members. For example, one audience member stated, "We were front row and able to see the offside of back stage. First horrifying thing, the goose was waddling off stage and stopped, a stage hand reached out and snatched the goose by the neck, yanking it off stage, no exaggeration. The white poodle has a significant ear injury and possible ear infection, kept pawing at it. The wire fox terriers seemed to have eye issues, perhaps conjunctivitis. The handling of the cats going into to apartment building was very rough."

The show received a USDA citation in June 2016 for mistreatment of animals.
