James Darren at Suncoast

James Darren has worn many hats over the years, from teen idol to holographic lounge singer on “Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.”

But don’t think him working a casino stage with a big band is just an affectation. Darren first played Las Vegas in 1966 and worked the Sahara with Buddy Hackett from 1970 to 1982, when he was cast in the TV cop show “T.J. Hooker.”

Tickets are $38.50-$49.50 for his 7:30 p.m. concert at the Suncoast, 9090 Alta Drive. Call 636-7075.
