About Ron & Lisa Smith
Husband and wife team, Ron and Lisa Smith are co-owners of "Beyond Talent Productions LLC" (producing some of the best entertainment Las Vegas has to offer) and have been working and performing together for over 15 years. The couple met while living in California, where Ron had been hosting the famous Wild Bill's Wild West Extravaganza in Buena Park, CA (playing the role of "Wild Bill") since its opening in 1991. In the summer of 1999, Lisa was hired to be his new co-host (playing the role of "Miss Annie"), and the rest is...shall we say...history.
Although Lisa and Ron continue to enjoy their own solo performing careers, their favorite thing to do is perform and sing TOGETHER. They have become frequent guest artists at the Suncoast Hotel & Casino "Hit Parade" Show, "Toast of the Town" Variety Show at Sam's Town, and the Starbright Theatre in Summerlin, and they travel frequently to California & Arizona to perform for various organizations and communities. Ron and Lisa have written several original revue shows together ("Back To Broadway;" "Side by Side: the Music of Steve & Eydie;" "Love is a Many COMPLICATED Thing: From Dating to Mating & Beyond;" "Salute to the 60's;" "Through the Decades;" "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year: A Holiday Musical Revue;" "At The Hop: Celebrating the Music of the 1950's!" "Slow Boat To China: the Music of Frank Loesser, from Tin Pan Alley to Broadway;" "Lisa & Ron SING Comden & Green," and many, many more...), and in the past few years have become one of the most sought-after performing duos on the West Coast!
