David Copperfield

Booked at the last minute and wasn't sure what to expect. When David first came on and was making some small-talk I didn't completely follow I was getting nervous but I have to say, by the end, it had completely won me over. Yes, the style and presentation is a bit cheesy but I actually liked that - a sort of throwback to watching TV magic shows in my childhood. And even though I might have sighed whenever the big curtain went up again, I was always astonished by what was revealed. I kind of get what some of the negative reviewers are saying about the magic itself but I think you have to appreciate the difference between a magician and an illusionist. This is more dramatic and theatrical. I liked the overarching story David had put together and felt some genuine emotion as it reached the finale. Considering he cranks out three of these shows a day, I'm impressed by his endurance and showmanship. It was a nice way to spend a few hours in Vegas with my wife and 7 year old daughter, giving us something we can look back on for years to come. Thanks David.

I’m so glad my family and I got to see the David Copperfield show. My daughters will never forget attending this show! I highly recommend buying tickets. The show has a great message. David Copperfield actually performs! Not like the other guy at Planet Hollywood…

The theater has amazing views everywhere. The show was amazing. Although I wasn't a fan of the "random audience participation" but overall it was an unbelievable experience and the set design was spectacular I got these tickets it was on my boyfriends bucket list. It was worth it to see him smile like a little kid throughout the show. SO thankful for the opportunity to see David copperfield

Unfortunately I’m adding my voice to the dozens of others that I read *after* watching the show. Please go and read their detailed reviews and look at the time stamps before continuing on. This is not one bad performance; it’s been this way for at least 4 years. I was actually so excited to see him in person; that’s what makes writing this so hard. Don’t make my mistake. If you are reading this, please don’t buy a ticket. If someone gives you a ticket for free, you may want to give it back. There are multiple common threads in the honest and heartbreaking critical reviews. I have no idea how this show is rated so highly, except for the deep bank account of trust that David has built over his long career. In my opinion, David needs to retire to salvage his legacy. The storyline was contrived, the story telling poorly executed. It was unexpectedly vulgar with young children in the audience. I would have been aghast if my kids were with me. Being coerced to give a fake dinosaur a standing ovation shocked me. Having David spend time talking to a puppet made no sense. There was no energy or excitement from him. The staff seemed excited to be working with him, but the fact that one of them was wearing an Apple Watch during the show struck me as unprofessional. I went in with high regard for him, and left sorely disappointed. P.S. I took a picture of his statue outside the theater. Looking at it now, it’s funny that the only letters in “Box Office” you see are the letters BOO. I didn’t boo during the performance out of respect, but I left feeling that way.

This was without question one of the worst experiences of my life. It was like watching a five-year-old do magic by turning out the lights and having the dog disappear. Piped in crowd noise to make you think people are impressed with boring tricks . He had one and only one impressive trick… the rest was ridiculous. If you read these 1* reviews in here and still buy tickets you have no one to blame but yourself.

The most incredible show. It's interactive....DC was often very close to all of us or speaking directly to us...then a car or spaceship would appear above us....incredible audience experience.

I want a refund on the tickets, this was one of the most disappointing, boring and the worst shows I've ever been to. All of us almost fell asleep. His tricks were barely illusions. The most impressive part of his show was how his assistants perfectly timed turning off the lights right before the big reveal. No "major" trick happened without the aide of all the lights turning off. The show and story was so boring that, David himself seemed extremely bored and tired of his own shows. He spent most of the show mumbling through words about his childhood story, we couldn't understand half the things he was saying. Half his show revolved around him talking to an alien animatronic puppet, it's was drawn out and boring. The finale with the dinosaur was even more underwhelming. He and his production had to force the crowd to engage. At the start of the show literally asking everyone to stand up and clap, as a result asking for a standing ovation. During the show his production assistants at the back were forcing loud claps which triggered the audience at the front to begin clapping. Sad! Finally his theater bar popcorn was cold. If you're putting on a boring show atleast have hot popcorn! Would highly recommend he retire and shut this production down, his heart is clearly not in it and a better show could be in the theater. A legend you say? Maybe a couple of decades past his prime, but I saw no legend.

Great show as always. This is my 5th David Copperfield show and my second Blu show. I brought my mom for her birthday since she grew up watching him and she was very impressed. The reason for my rating is because David’s voice was not being projected properly and we couldn’t articulate what was happening. Reason number 2 is the political references that were subtle but very much understood by everyone. I honestly believe that as a showman, just keep doing what you do best and stay away from politics at least during your show

He made a car appear on stage so that was incredible and my favorite part of the about 75 minute show. show. We would give 3.5 star rating of that was an option. Things I wish I knew before I bought front row tickets. 1. No table service so you need to exit theatre for drinks. 2. Front row tables are 4 chairs per tiny round table. Super squished. I would not recommend front row seats though. Save the dough. 3. What’s with the alien puppet show? This was really bizarre. Especially his interactions with said puppet 4. He’s kind of a D!@k to people. No not kind of, he is rude to the audience. 5. Language please. It was like he got paid to say GD over and over. 6. It was difficult to hear him talking. Unless he was mumbling to himself but I’m pretty sure he was talking to the audience. You just couldn’t hear him well. Making the car appear was the best! It was also the highlight of the show. It was fun but I expected more, after all he is a David Copperfield. So don’t pay 150.00 a ticket like we did. Buy the cheaper ones and you have a great view.
