I saw this show when I was at Las Vegas last week. I chose this over the David Copperfiled show and I think I made the right choice. Mat is just not a magician but an entertainer and a great storyteller. The 90 minute show will keep you engaged. Every trick has a story that makes it emotional. Mat is warm and likeable and that what makes it special. He shares his story and the kids simply love it. Most of the tricks are card related but they are fresh. I really liked the last act where he brought together all the various acts he had performed. If you want to be called out as a volunteer in the show, don't hesitate and shout out. Usually, the first row folks get picked up but if you have a friend who has a special occasion, shout it out and Mat will call him or her out to the stage. Definite value for the money and a memorable evening.
