David CopperField at MGM Grand

Features:

Old and new fans will appreciate that he blends some of his classic illusions with new and original work. The Hollywood Theatre at MGM Grand is an intimate, 740 seat theater. Due to the smaller size of the room, most online reviewers of his show have described their view of the show favorably. The show might not be ideal for families with young children, and there is an age restriction of 5 years or older to attend. The show makes a perfect date night or group activity and is affordably priced.

What To Know:

David is a master magician with decades of both live and televised experience under his belt. While most visitors have seen him perform on television, it is more exciting to experience his illusions in a live venue. Part of the fun for the audience is the fact that he interacts with them throughout his performance and regularly includes them in his act. By coming out into the audience to show his skills up close, David demonstrates his masterful technique and professionalism. What separates this show from others is the fact that he relies on his skills as a showman and illusionist rather than presenting something overproduced or distracting. If you grew up watching David on one of his many television specials, then seeing him in person is an entertaining and nostalgic experience.

Inside Knowledge:

David has been a magician since he was a 12 year old child. At that age he performed professionally and was also the youngest person ever to be admitted to the Society of American Musicians. At the age of 16, David taught a course in magic at the New York University. David has had an iconic career including television specials, performed in a Broadway show, won Emmys and received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. David received the Living Legend award from the United States Library of Congress. In 1991 David founded the International Museum and Library of the Conjuring Arts. The Museum is home to over 150,000 props, posters, books and other items related to conjuring. Housed in a building in Nevada, this collection holds the Guiness Book of World Record for being the largest private collection of magic artifacts.
