Artist:
Lance Burton at Monte Carlo
Genre: Las Vegas
Background: Whether exhibiting
his twist on a classic trick or making a
full-size convertible vanish into thin air,
Lance Burton is the kind of guy you want
to keep your eye on. Magic fans have had
plenty of opportunities to do just that.
Burton's career spans in excess of a staggering
11,000 performances, including 3,000 during
his current legendary stint at the Monte
Carlo.
In a town where you can't walk 10 steps
in any direction without tripping over a
magician, Lance Burton stands above the
conjuring crowd, second only to Siegfried
& Roy in name recognition. His show
has been thrilling audiences at Monte Carlo's
Lance Burton Theater since 1996.
Exceptionally beautiful, this USD27 million
theater is located at the Monte Carlo Hotel.
The 1,274-seat venue features a main floor,
mezzanine and balcony. The lobby has a full-service
bar and the theater seats have drink holders
for your convenience. The theater is named
for Lance Burton, the master illusionist
who performs his magic while taking you
on a theatrical journey.
The 'Master Magician' title isn't just publicity;
Burton was selected to inherit the mantle
that has passed in an unbroken line through
such magic immortals as Thurston, Dante
and Grabel, dating back to 1908.
