Alice Cooper and illusionist Criss Angel have released the first-ever video footage from their "Welcome To Our Nightmare" collaboration shows, and Cooper has confirmed some big news to go with it: Nita Strauss is rejoining his band for the upcoming Las Vegas dates.

"Welcome To Our Nightmare" mashes up Cooper's classic rock 'n' roll catalog with Criss Angel's award-winning stage illusions, and the shows have been selling out at Planet Hollywood's Criss Angel Theatre all year. The additional dates — November 27-28 and December 4-5 — were added after the spring run sold out fast.

Strauss, who's been with Cooper's band since 2014, is stepping back in after taking leave to have a baby earlier this year. Anna Cara, who filled in admirably across Cooper's 2026 North American and European dates, will stick around for "Alice's Attic" tour dates in September and October/November before Strauss returns for the Vegas closer.

Cooper on the reunion: "Nita opened our 2026 touring season in Las Vegas back in March and is now returning to close out 2026 with us there, and we're really looking forward to welcoming the Hurricane back onto the stage... Who could ask for anything more than to have these two amazing musicians in the Cooper family?"

Where: Criss Angel Theatre @ Planet Hollywood, Las Vegas
When: November 27 + 28 and December 4 + 5
