In Vegas things aren't always what they seems and there may be no better example of that than at Lance Burton's magic show.
While many magicians use their acts to amaze, astound and baffle their audiences Burton takes the opportunity to give audiences insight into what it takes to perform some of his tricks although you may not be able to pull it off as the same effortless manner that he is able to.
Despite being a musician for most of his life Burton still remembers what it is like to be a child witnessing their first magic trick up close and personal. That is why he often invites children up to his stage so they can check out all his fancy handiwork.
Aside from his amazing sleight of hand and down home personality one of Burton's biggest attributes is the fact that he manages to keep the show going at a fairly quick pace despite all his costume changes. His changes are so fast that many audience members don't even realize he has done it. Burton could be under a blanket one minute wearing a black tuxedo and the next thing you know his is high atop the theater on the chandelier wearing an all white outfit and leaving wondering how he was able to do all that.
For those that are looking for a night of magical family fun than Lance Burton has got to be the one.
