  • I don't quite know where to start with this one.... I've always been a fan of magic and illusions, so when the opportunity arose to see the master of illusion, David Copperfield in action, I jumped on it. I shelled out $170 for my girlfriend and I to go (that's getting discount tickets too) in the hopes we could have a memorable evening. It was definitely memorable, but for all the wrong reasons. First and foremost, the alien bit that everyone complains about is truly as bad as it is made out to be. I have NO idea what the point of it was, he could very easily have accomplished the same trick in 5 minutes rather than 30 if he took out the boring story around it. The second thing that struck us was the use of casual racism in the show. He was talking to an Asian gentleman in the audience who clearly didn't speak much English and he made and repeated a comment several times referring to the guys penis as his "egg roll" which was not only racist, but just plain weird. He also put on a fake Asian accent at a couple of points. Another person of Asian origin was in the audience from Seattle and was American. David made a couple of comments and started talking to him in Cantonese saying he was going to teach him "his own language"! Pretty awful. Was hoping for the big saw finale, but nothing of the sort. He just played a video where he hugged his dad and appeared in the middle of a dark auditorium. He came across as washed up and plugging cheap jokes and making fun of people, rather than actually impressing with his illusions. Would not see this show again, hopefully others don't get stung with paying to see it either.
