| - When the "opening act" came out I knew I was in for a hysterical, rowdy show. If you are a fan of the absurd and can appreciate a foul-mouth, then this is definitely a show to consider. Amazing Johnathan did not fail to make me laugh during his entire set.
So let's get down to it: if you don't like the "F word" then please, please save yourself the time and money. You'll be glad you did and your would-be seat neighbors will be happy as well. Seeing as I was a pirate in a past life, the language didn't faze me a bit.
Other things to keep in mind...
-It's not in a theater, but in Bally's old buffet room. It's weird and awkward and there are some bad seats. Get there early for better seat assignments.
-The show is short, coming in at around an hour. I wish it would have been a standard 90 minute show.
-There isn't much magic involved in the show. It's more of a stand-up routine with a few magic tricks thrown in for good measure. This wasn't an issue for me because I like to laugh and would rather see a comedian than a magician.
With all that said, the show is great for the right price. I was lucky enough to get a deal on tickets and that has changed my perspective on the show. With the venue and length of the show in mind, I would not recommend paying for full-priced tickets.
I'm going with four stars based off the value for what I paid. I could see the star rating drop, however, if I had paid full-price.
Note: This show is no longer at Planet Hollywood, but now at Bally's.
