meijin Regular user Atlanta, GA 189 Posts	Posted: Mar 11, 2006 04:40 am 0 Obviously, I know that Lance Burton is at the Monte Carlo and then there is P&T at the Rio (saw their show last year). Can anyone offer up any places to go to for a magic show or shows? Primarily interested in cards, coins and mentalism...but anything good will work. I am going to be there for the WSOP the last of June through July 4th. I'd be grateful for any leads on folks to check out. Thanks!

Gonzo New user 63 Posts	Posted: Mar 11, 2006 08:31 am 0 I'd highly recommend the Mac King Show @ Harrah's (my favorite), then the Worlds Greatest Magic show @ Greek Isles, then Amazing Jonathan @ the Sahara and finally Rick Thomas at the Stardust.

Mago Gregorio Elite user Paris, France 473 Posts	Posted: Mar 11, 2006 11:09 pm 0 Mac King at Harrahs, one of the cheapest and best show of Magic in Vegas. It aso has the advantage to be performed in the afternoon. Don't miss Cirque du Soleil. It's also magic !
sk8freak45672 New user South Florida 53 Posts	Posted: Mar 11, 2006 11:59 pm 0 I have to agree that Mac King is a great show. I would also suggest checking out the Amazing Jonathan he is very funny. Lance Burton is also a great show. The only constant is change.

flimnar Special user Salt Lake 577 Posts	Posted: Mar 13, 2006 12:32 am 0 Mac King's show is, hands down, the best magic show in Vegas. I believe it is priced under $20. Lance Burton's show is also terrific, but is considerably more expensive. Flimnar "This one goes to eleven..." Nigel Tufnel
Cody Fisher Special user 884 Posts	Posted: Mar 13, 2006 12:38 am 0 Definitely check out Mac King and Rick Thomas. Lance Burton is great for classic magic. Also check out Dirk Arthur.
jondark445 Special user 716 Posts	Posted: Mar 13, 2006 04:38 pm 0 Hey: Anyone know if most of the magicians are available for autographs after their show. I saw P&T as well as Lance a long while back, and they did it then. Just curious if they still do. Does Mac King? --Jon
evolve629 Inner circle A stack of 3838 Posts	Posted: Mar 13, 2006 05:04 pm 0 Take a look at this link - http://www.vegas.com/shows/ It has a listing of up-to-date magic shows in Vegas.

Memory-Jah Inner circle Germany 1438 Posts	Posted: Mar 13, 2006 11:59 pm 0 How much does such a special las vegas magic show cost in general? I mean a ticket. is it very expensiv?

Ron Reid Inner circle Phoenix, Arizona 2733 Posts	Posted: Mar 17, 2006 01:18 pm 0 Hello Memory-Jah: The prices vary quite a bit, and there are lots of coupons in magazines and at some of the casinos/hotels, but I think I can give you an idea. 1. Lance Burton - around $60.00 2. Mac King - around $25.00 3. David Copperfield - around $100.00 4. Penn and Teller - last time I went, it was around $50.00 to $60.00 5. Rick Thomas - when he was at the Tropicana, it was around $15.00 to $20.00 6. World's Greatest Magic Show - seems like it was $50.00 to $60.00 when it was at Sahara's There are some shows in the afternoons, and they're cheaper. Also, there are two ticket outlets where you can buy tickets the day of the show, but not before then. They sell tickets for 1/2 price, and not all shows are available. I've done this a number of times, and it's a nice deal. I go to Las Vegas quite often - I can get there in 50 minutes via plane. The prices above are just from my memory. Ron
