Anyone that gave this show a thumbs up or a rating higher than a 2 must be a retarded monkey. The only
reason why I would consider giving this show anything higher than a 1 is because the juggler was mildly
entertaining. I purchased balcony seats, and was slightly dissapointed because you can't see half of the
performance, but after the show I was happy I did not waste any more money on better seats. I also
wouldn't want him touching my children either, he just seems "not right" to me. Go watch the live statue
that performs in the ghetto strip mall. It was better.

This is another must see show in Vegas. My husband I got the tickets free and we were kinda worried about it. Not only did he perform magic but he was making us laugh throughout the whole show. Even the little act he had going while he was getting ready was so funny. My husband thinks he is better then david cooperfeild. Again a MUST SEE SHOW.

I wasn't too excited to go to this show, but the rest of the family really wanted to go so I reluctantly bought tickets. What a treat! Lance starts out with some basic tricks and then progresses to some pretty great stuff. He talks to the audience and gets them engaged. If you want your children to be able to participate, I suggest getting tickets on the main floor near the front, and when he asks for volunteers, you child needs to move fast to get to the stage.
Very family friendly and the juggler is amusing. There really are no "bad" seats in the house. We were in the mezzanine section pretty much in the middle, and we had really good views.
I loved the show and highly recommend it for those who enjoy magic and some illusions. Not at the calibur of David Copperfield, but the tickets are 3/4 of the price too.

Lance has a very charming personality which adds to the overall experience. Great illusions !
I would recommend that you avoid the third or top balcony as you are too far away and sometimes can not see stage front activity.

One of the best magic shows I have ever seen. Lance Burton is GREAT. He has a wonderful personality that makes you feel he is a friend. He is truly a MASTER MAGICIAN.
His work with birds and ducks is unbelievable. The girls who assist him are truly lovely and talented in their own right.
A real plus is the comedy juggler. I'm not a big fan of jugglers, but this one was exceptional and VERY funny.
Of the six shows I saw during my trip this one ranks right at the top - I enjoyed it more than "O".

Lance Burton has a wide variety of impressive tricks of varying scale and knows how to work a crowd - especially kids. The production values are strong, the juggling variety act was terrific, and the ticket price is even relatively modest for a big-scale show in Vegas. It's a great traditional magic show.

People try to compare him to Copperfield or others. The others may be "flashier" or use more special effects, but if you want GOOD magic without a lot of extras, then Lance is for you. He does MAGIC and a great show. He is a man who is humble about his ability, has a great personality and has a charisma that makes you like him. I have seen his show twice, once in 2004 and once 3 of 2005. He has changed parts of his show, but to see a car disappear in front of you with an audience member inside is amazing. You walk out of there wondering "how'd he do that?" and you were sitting very close to the stage and couldn't figure it out. He gives a great show at a great price. Let the others charge an outrageous price for their flash and extras. If you want GOOD magic go see Lance

Went to the show on 10/19 and it was great. We were in the third row but I don't think there are many bad seats in the place. I would have no problem with bringing kids to this show. Great show!

We enjoyed the show (2nd row seats don't hurt). He gets alot of kids on-stage to participate. My girls had seen a few of the tricks on TV before so he may need to shake things up in the future.

BORING!!!! After reading all the good reviews we decided to get tickets, WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY. We have seen Siegfried & Roy and David Copperfield and nothing compares to them. Lance Burton was performing the same tricks over and over again. He also smokes during his show and his sidekick puts a garbage bag over his head- really safe things to be teaching all the children watching! Trust me, go see Mystere at Treasure Island, cirque du soleil is AMAZING!!!

Great show. Exceeded my expectations. Although, he has a dry personality. Ask for an upgrade when picking up tixs.

Excellent show, but besides the great magic and illusions, Lance is especially good working with the children volunteers. Whether they were outspoken or quiet he always established a great rapport with them and I'm sure it's an evening they won't soon forget. Very amusing, too.

This was an amazing performance by Lance Burton. He is a great magician and puts on a good show. He includes kids from the audience and that went well. Some of his magic is just beyond belief, it was good.
Only negetive is that we paid for medium tickets, not the top, not the cheapest, but we sat high up and on the side, hard to see what he is doing as the theater is so big. Take binoculars, that would work. But great performance.

I was bored. It is a very nice show for children. The magic is OK nothing spectactular. The juggler in the beginning of the show was the most entertained I was during the that night.

If you want to see a real Magician do the business then he is the man.Even when you know how a trick is done you still can't see him doing it.I have seen the show twice now and it is still fresh and surprising,Vegas style at it's very best.

This show was excellent. I have seen other magic shows and this was clearly the best one. My only complaint was getting the tickets. If you call in advance they either put you in the lower tier or upper tier, and WILL NOT GIVE YOU YOUR SEAT NUMBER ON THE PHONE!!! I asked why and the said they can only give you the seat number if you come to the box office and buy your ticket. Otherwise you would be assigned by the computer at some point in the future???? Well, you can guess where my seats were after I called 3 months in advance. I was in the 3rd row at the very end. I might as well have been sitting in the casino. The show was only about 1/4 full with plenty of emtpy seats everywhere. I went and complained to the box office and they did change my seats to the 4th row center and they were excellent seats. But my point is that you have to watch so you do not get hussled. Obviously, what they do is give the best seats to people who buy tickets in person and fill in the gaps with the phone in reservations, no matter how far in advance you call. This REALLY UPSET ME AND LEFT A BAD TAST IN MOUTH. They need to give you a seat number when you phone in an order and stop hussling people.
