LAS VEGAS (AP) -- David Cassidy will try his luck on some different projects.
His "At the Copa" show in Las Vegas will close Jan. 21, less than a year after its debut.
Cassidy says he wants to spend more time with his family and pursue offers for a recording contract and a movie. He'll finish the second year of his contract with Harrah's Entertainment by performing concerts at other Harrah's properties.
The future of the 10-month-old "At the Copa," a Broadway-styled musical in which Cassidy and Sheena Easton portray nightclub singers, was uncertain after it became apparent last month that Easton would leave the show. Cassidy is producer.
Cassidy addressed news reports of a fallout with the Scottish pop singer by telling reporters Thursday there was "never a problem with any of my work mates."
The 50-year-old former teen idol and "Partridge Family" star moved to Las Vegas in 1996 to star in "EFX'' at the MGM Grand. He also co-produces "The Rat Pack is Back" at the Sahara.
