Definitely a family - focused show for younger children. The tricks include doves and rings which seem to be "dated" magic in the 21st century. The tigers were beautiful creatures - needed more stage time. The dancers were mediocre. Rick's running commentary seemed fake and contrived (perhaps it was an off-night). Good stereotypical Americana ... if that is what you're... More

Although the audience was filled with kids and we went as a couple, we still had a fun time. Rick Thomas conducts a magic show that is impressive for all ages. Attractive dancers, amazing illusions, motorcycles and even tigers. I was impressed. Half the time my boyfriend and I turned to each other and thought "HOW???" We haven't seen Copperfield... More

Don't go with a high expectation. The magic was fun, the choreography was mediocre. Overall good experience. More

Rick provides some jaw dropping illusions and the tigers are magnificant. You can get up on stage with them after the show. (they are still in cages and you will not be able to touch them) More

I went to Vegas with my 8 year old Granddaughter & daughter. We saw many shows and attractions but this stands out as the best. Rick is awesome not just in his magic but the interaction with his audience....my granddaughter got to go on stage and perform magic...she will never forget this trip nor will I. More

I'm a magician and come from a long line of magicians, including one of the greatest who ever lived and this show is the cats meow. Rick is humorous, energetic, entertaining, and his magic is extraordinary. Large Illusions, stand up hand magic, audience interaction, you name it. Rick is also a championship dancer and just watching the dancing in his... More

Rick Thomas performs some spectacular illusions. There was a white tiger and an orange tiger in the show we saw. We were expecting more tiger participation but understand why there was not that much. Our tickets, bought on Vegas.com, included a "meet & greet" with Rick and the tigers after the show. That was really interesting and we had our... More

Very entertaining and amazing magic show, especially with the tigers' appearances. Time & money well spent for our family. Comfortable & clean venue (V theater @ Planet Hollywood). If you like magic shows, this one is a must see. More

I've been to several magic shows in Vegas (Lance Burton, Siegfried & Roy, etc.) and have to say that Rick Thomas' show was not very good. He didn't seem to be enjoying himself at all and that didn't make it very fun to watch. The tricks were good but it was all a bit tired. You have to spend extra... More
