| - In honor of Valentine's Day, I shall write a review on my long lost Valentine, David Copperfield. The man that my 12 year old self used to fawn over, and the man that I told myself I'd go watch in person one day. Thanks to my boyfriend, I finally got the chance. YES! I checked it off my list of "things to do" before I leave this beautiful planet. And guess what? He's old. lol Yes, I know I should have expected this. People obviously grow older Jackie, what were you thinking? He'd still be the same super fine young lad 12 years down the line? I don't think so! hahaha I guess the 12 year old gal hidden inside of me still hoped to see my love as I remembered him...
Anyway, on to the show. No pictures are allowed! Although, I did take a picture of the stage before the show started. We were in the first row towards the left of the stage:

I also snuck a pic of my Hollywood Splash Drink. It was good, but I didn't taste any alcohol. In their defense, I never really do unless there's a significant amount involved. lol

We ordered popcorn with the drink and both items were tasty.
As far as the actual show is concered, we enjoyed ourselves. I saw a couple of "tricks" that I remembered, which might bother some but I'm glad I got to see it in person. David is comical and very entertaining. I thought parts of the show were pretty cheesy, the kind of (cue the music) "follow your dreams," anything is possible "if you just believe," type of cheesy. Who knew David was such a cheese ball. Then again, I do LOVE cheese. lol I think it's good for the kids though. I apparently dug it a whole lot back then.
Overall, I think it's worth the money if you're a fan and aren't expecting TOO MUCH out of it. If you're looking for "blow your mind, out of this world" type of entertainment, you should probably consider another show. Other than that, I had fun and it was a nice experience.
Happy Valentine's Day!
