Lance Burton is the best magician in Las Vegas; no question and no doubt. He has that rare combination of gifts that include personality, charisma, talent, and ability that make he performance superb.

Lance Burton plays inside the Lance Burton Theatre at the Monte Carlo Hotel and Casino. Very simply, the show is wonderful. The execution, timing, amazement, and pure entertainment of the evening were all great. I don’t think that I’ve ever given a Magic show, or a Magician, a standing ovation before, but Lance Burton deserved it and received it.

Burton uses a combination of magical styles--both prop magic and sleight-of-hand. He is skillful and adept at both, and he incorporates enough theme and variation within each of the illusions to truly make every trick an absolute marvel. He commands a wonderful presence. His showmanship is strong, and he is extremely personable on stage. Also, I truly appreciate a good sleight-of-hand artist. It takes so much skill and practice to make these illusions consistently strong, and Lance Burton is a master. His hands look as if they are dancing a ballet.

The theatre is great. First of all, it is an actual theatre with comfortable seating and good sight lines. Secondly, it is very well equipped and adapted for this production. Sound, sight, and spirit are always stimulated and elevated by the technology.

Having heard that this production would be good for families, I took my daughter as my “date.” Feedback from children is always immediate and honest, and my daughter has never been shy about telling me when she felt something wasn’t working. My daughter was mesmerized by the production. She is still of the age where she believes that Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny are real, and now she believes in magic--thanks to Lance Burton.

The show is additionally supported by a group of dancers and a juggler. I enjoyed watching both. The dancers did an excellent job of framing and augmenting the illusions and the production.

The juggler, Michael Goudeau, was also wonderful to watch. His juggling and his comedy offered a nice break in the magical action, and I really like how he was later incorporated into the show.

There are so many shows out there. We are inundated with commercials and ads all the time. Usually, a good show is one that can simply live up to all of the hype. The Lance Burton production is truly exceptional because it not only met our expectations, it indeed exceeded them.
