Fodor's Review:

When Roy Horn's tiger bite suddenly put Siegfried & Roy out of business in 2003, the reigning kings of magic became David Copperfield and Burton, a nice guy from Kentucky who worked his way up the ranks from specialty act to star. Although Copperfield performs about half his annual schedule away from the Strip, Burton is a year-round attraction in an opulent 1,200-seat Victorian theater that makes a splendid long-term home. He's a charmer with the ladies and works youngsters into the show like no other act on the Strip. Unfortunately, the small magic -- the sleight of hand and close-up tricks that earned him the prestigious Gold Medal from the International Brotherhood of Magicians -- is lost from way up in the balcony.
