If Las Vegas is the magic capital of the world, here's where you can read reviews about the hottest shows in town.
1. Lance Burton Master Magician
A reliable Las Vegas mainstay, Lance Burton offers one of the finest magic shows on the strip. With his showmanship, fantastic illusions and dazzling technical skills, Burton does it all. The end result is a must-see for magic fans.
2. CRISS ANGEL Believe
Can a production from Criss Angel and Cirque du Soleil fall below the sum of their reputations? After seeing the show tonight, I think that "CRISS ANGEL Believe" hardly falls short - the visuals, dancing, sets, music and yes, illusions, are fantastic - it simply misses the mark for reasons that I'll explain here.
3. Steve Wyrick - Real Magic
Steve Wyrick offers magic entertainment that awes with its scale, but still connects on a personal level. His "Real Magic" showcases large scale illusions and Broadway-style sets, and the requisite flashing lights, attractive dancers and techno music.
4. "Xtreme Magic" Starring Dirk Arthur
There's something about those big cats, the tigers and leopards, which are always intriguing. And with the absence of Rick Thomas and Siegfried & Roy in the Las Vegas line-up, Dirk Arthur's "Xtreme Magic" is now the only show where you can see these dangerous creatures. While Arthur offers an entertaining big illusion style show, it's the exotic cats in his magic mix that sets his show apart.
5. The Mentalist: Gerry McCambridge
Forget what you know about boring billets and dreary predictions. In "The Mentalist" at The Hooters Casino, Gerry McCambridge offers a fresh comic approach that is edgy and entertaining. And in McCambridge’s hands, mentalism becomes an excellent addition to the Vegas night scene.
6. Nathan Burton Comedy Magic
With some truly twisted takes on big scale illusions, "Nathan Burton Comedy Magic" serves up lots of fun at the Flamingo, Las Vegas. It's a fast-paced, entertaining and funny show with lots of music and dancing.
7. Jeff McBride: Magic At the Edge
When you have the opportunity to see master magician Jeff McBride in action, you'll always want to take it. This is the case with his latest show, "Jeff McBride: Magic At the Edge," which runs at the Palace Station Casino in Las Vegas. No tigers, big boxes or Vegas-style dancers here. Just McBride and his unique brand of entertaining and mystical magic. There is no other show in Vegas, or anywhere else, that is like this one.
