| - I ended up seeing this show about a month or so ago, and while I had no idea what to expect, I was pleased with what I saw.
Mac King is funny. He's very funny. He throws in some jokes that sail right over the kid's heads, but he's not a "dirty" comedian. Oh, he has fun for sure, but it's non-offensive.
I don't want to review the show itself too much in terms of what to expect as, like the magic itself, it's fun to be surprised. Just when you think some of the tricks were figured out and predictable, Mac King threw some curve ball into the equation that was normally just hilarious, and showed how talented this unassuming guy in a suit that looks like it was created from your parent's couch in the 1970's really is.
The most impressive part? After the show, he stayed behind to pose with people for pictures, sign autographs, and just TALK to people. Normally, once the entertainer leaves the stage, that's all you get. Good-bye, and you are done. I got an opportunity to talk to him after the show, and found him to be completely patient, humble, and genuinely appreciative. That, my friends, is a sign of a true class act, and with that comes my recommendation to see this show.
It's a cheap show, and a good nearly two hour show. Well worth the time and expense (and you can drink during the show as well).
