Jabbawockeez: FREQNCY, masked dancers and a wall of sound
The MTV dance crew that made the white mask and glove iconic now runs FREQNCY nightly at MGM Grand, a music and light driven show built around the idea that everything and everyone connects through frequency.
Jabbawockeez won the very first season of America’s Best Dance Crew, and the masked, silent style they made famous is still the whole point of the show. FREQNCY, their newest production at MGM Grand, leans into big lighting, layered music, and choreography that crosses genres rather than staying in one lane.
I like recommending this one when a group wants something high-energy and visual that doesn’t require following dialogue or a storyline. Because nobody in the crew speaks or is individually identified, it plays well across ages and languages.
What FREQNCY is, and who it fits
Four things worth knowing before you pick a night.
Masks, not faces
The crew performs masked, keeping the focus entirely on the choreography and visuals rather than on any single dancer’s identity.
Family friendly
Guests age 4 and older need their own ticket, while children 3 and under can be admitted free as a lap seat, per the theater’s own policy.
The room itself
A dedicated theater inside MGM Grand, easy to reach on foot from the casino floor.
What to know
Nightly shows typically run at 5:30pm and 8pm. Confirm the current schedule and pricing when you book.

Before you book Jabbawockeez
The practical stuff that decides whether this is a great night or a rushed one.
It’s the current show, not an older run
FREQNCY is a newer production replacing the crew’s previous MGM Grand show. If an older listing mentions a different title, it may be describing a past version of the residency.
Seating can be flat
Some visitors have noted the theater’s floor is fairly flat, so taller people in front of you can affect your view. If sightlines matter to you, ask about elevated or tiered seating when you book.
It’s genuinely all-ages
With no dialogue and no age minimum beyond the lap-seat policy for kids 3 and under, this is one of the safer picks for a mixed-age group.
Two showtimes a night
With shows typically at 5:30pm and 8pm, you can often build dinner around either slot. Confirm the current schedule since times can shift.
What I like about Jabbawockeez is that it doesn’t ask anything of you but attention. No storyline to follow, no language required, just sound and movement working together.
