Decent Show

The show was very enjoyable and funny. We enjoy their humor and Penn's commentary on all things. They were very entertaining. Great tricks... Great laughs. It's worth it just to hear Teller talk AFTER the show.

Thumbs horizontal

Some funny, some odd, some weird. I enjoyed the sarcasm but was disappointed with the overall performance. It's casual, which can be a breath of fresh air, but unfortunately the casualness in this case only lends to the negative part of this show. It's way to expensive for what it is.

Summary

Features: Penn and Teller have been honing their act for over 25 years, and they are without question the most famous magician duo around. Their show works, partly because of their skill in the craft, but also because of the great chemistry they have.

Why We Go:It's rare that a magician spills his secrets, but Penn and Teller demystify magic throughout their show, even revealing the method behind some of their tricks along the way. Penn provides commentary as Teller is mime-like in his actions, which makes for a lot of comedy.

  • Cup and Ball Trick: The duo break the rules of this infamous trick, using clear cups so the audience can see where the ball is at all times, even still, the sleight-of hand is so subtle that it is still hard not to be deceived.
  • The Bullet Catch: Perhaps their most famous illusion, and one that they definitely don't reveal the secret to—the two men fire a gun at each other simultaneously and miraculously catch the bullets.

Inside Knowledge:Plan on sticking around after the show, as the duo comes off the stage and greets the audience. They spend as much time as necessary signing autographs and taking pictures with anyone who wants them.

Do's and Don'ts:

  • Do Sit Close to the Front: Many of the intricacies of the show are hard to experience unless you have a up close and personal view of the action, it's worth spending the extra money for a better seat in this case.
  • Don't Bring Kids: The stage act of Penn and Teller is a little bit more edgy than some of the TV specials you may have seen. They inject their personal opinions on a lot of subjects throughout the show, and those opinions are not always PC or PG.
