| - If you want to see a magician who plays clean and gets most of his mileage from cleverness rather than scantily clad girls or hip poses, Mac is your ticket. Mac comes on as a guy from the sticks of Kentucky who's wearing a new suit, which he later is reveals used to be his grandfather's suit, which he later reveals used to be his grandmother's couch. His humor is self-deprecating and hilarious, and suitable for all ages.
As for the magic, it's top notch. Especially enjoyable is when he pretends to be invisible. It's hard to describe. You have to just see it. I don't know why I laugh so much at that, but that's the brilliance of this show--you just laugh! I had no idea that tricks that don't involve big boxes or dance numbers can play so well to the back row, but they do.
After the show, one of the employees told me that in the new year, they're redesigning the theatre for a few weeks and putting Mac into the Improv room, so they'll soon have new and better fixed seating. Great. I plan to go again when I go back to LV in February, and again whenever I go back.
