🌵 Spike Wants to Know
Have you seen Popovich Comedy Pet Theater before?

The cast changes as new animals join the family. Gregory Popovich has been running this show for 15 seasons and it still doesn't feel like it's going through the motions. If you've got kids who haven't seen it yet, this is the call. If you saw it years ago, the new animals alone make it worth coming back.

Thirty-plus rescued animals — cats, dogs, parrots, geese, white doves, and Diamond the Shetland Pony — performing alongside world-class juggling and circus acts in a 70-minute show built for literally everyone in your group. USA Today called it "like a Cirque show with animals." That's a pretty good one-liner for what it actually is.

About Popovich Comedy Pet Theater

Gregory Popovich is a fifth-generation circus performer from Kyiv who trained with the Moscow Circus and toured with Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey. He has performed in 25 countries and appeared on The Tonight Show, Late Night with David Letterman, The Late Late Show, Animal Planet, and America's Got Talent. His Las Vegas show is now in its 15th season at Planet Hollywood — which by Strip standards is an institution.

🌵
Spike's Take Every single animal in this show was rescued from a shelter. They're not wild animals trained under pressure — they're housecats, dogs, and birds who were given a second life and apparently love performing. That backstory lands differently once you're watching them on stage.

The show pairs Popovich's world-class juggling, gymnastics, and balance acts with more than 30 performing animals — cats, dogs, parrots, geese, white doves, and Diamond the Shetland Pony. The combination is genuinely hard to describe and easy to enjoy. It runs 70 minutes at the V Theater inside Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood, five days a week at 2:30 PM. All ages, no exceptions needed — this one actually delivers on the family promise.

What to Expect

🐾 30+ Rescued Animals
Every animal in the show was rescued from a shelter. Cats, dogs, parrots, geese, white doves, and Diamond the Shetland Pony — each one given a second life and now performing nightly at Planet Hollywood. The backstory makes the acts land differently than any trained animal show you've seen before.
🤹 World-Class Circus Acts
Gregory Popovich is a fifth-generation circus performer who trained with the Moscow Circus and toured with Ringling Brothers. The juggling, gymnastics, and balance acts running alongside the animal performances are genuinely elite — not filler between the cute parts. The whole show is the show.
👨‍👩‍👧 Actually Family-Friendly
All ages, no caveats. This show works on a five-year-old and a sixty-year-old simultaneously — which almost nothing else on the Strip can claim. No adult content, no language, no moments where you're calculating whether it's appropriate. It's just 70 minutes of something everyone in the room enjoys.
📷 Check Before You Shoot
Still photos may be welcome at this show — check with your usher before pulling out a camera. Flash photography is strictly prohibited. Video recording is not permitted. If an usher asks you to stop, put the phone away. This is enforced.

Frequently Asked

Yes — every performing animal in Popovich Comedy Pet Theater was rescued from an animal shelter. Cats, dogs, parrots, geese, white doves, and Diamond the Shetland Pony all came from shelters and were given a new life with Gregory Popovich's troupe. They're not exotic or wild animals — they're former shelter pets who now perform nightly on a Las Vegas stage.
It's one of the best shows on the Strip for young children. No age restrictions, no adult content, no moments to navigate around. Children 2 and under sit on a lap for free. The combination of animals performing tricks and world-class circus acts holds attention at every age. This is the show locals bring out-of-town family to when kids are in the group.

The V Theater is located inside Miracle Mile Shops at the back of the mall — not inside the casino itself. Enter through Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino at 3663 S Las Vegas Blvd and follow signs through Miracle Mile Shops to Suite 360. Avoid valet parking at the hotel entrance as it can mean a long walk through the property. Arriving 30 minutes early is recommended to give yourself enough time to find the theater and get seated.
The V Theater does not offer food service, but there is a full-service bar on site. A wide variety of restaurants and dining options are available throughout Miracle Mile Shops before or after the show — it's a full mall, so there's plenty of choice without going far.
Popovich Comedy Pet Theater performs Tuesday through Saturday at 2:30 PM. The show is dark on Sundays and Mondays. The runtime is 70 minutes with no intermission. Always verify the current schedule before purchasing.
Refunds are available for exceptional circumstances such as the unlikely event that a show cancels. Check the full terms and conditions before purchasing.
