I have wanted to see Penn & Teller live for years, and when I finally was able to do so they did not disappoint! I absolutely love their take on the "magic" show -- debunking false supernatural claims, showing the audience how tricks are accomplished and then turning right around and performing a yet MORE astonishing trick. They are extremely smart, funny and totally amazing. Also they don't rely on any kind of flashy special effects, smoke, mechanical dragons, spangles or any of that other kitschy over-the-top "magician" stuff. I would go again in a heartbeat!

I've seen Penn & Teller several times live over the years when they tour. I think the first time was the late 1980s! However, this was the first time I have seen them live in Las Vegas. They have several new pieces in the show--you will enjoy them. They are always funny, smart, and really do a public service as they have always incorporated in their show a piece to debunk so called psychics, as did Houdini in his day. Don't miss them! You will be talking about the show long after it is over.

To be honest, the show was fine. The biggest problem I had was the fact that Penn & Teller did not use a camera to zoom into their little tricks for people that were sitting up in the mezzanine. Other then that it was witty and interesting. My girlfriend and I did miss a few tricks because we were too far away! That was the biggest issue!
