for Mount Pocono

Saw them 7 years ago...myself, daughter (21 at the time) and my husband. We didn't like it at all. As a matter of fact we all snoozed at one time or another during it. This is not to say you won't enjoy the show. It is a matter of taste. We found it to be a waste of money.

You might try to catch them on cable to get a feel of whether or not you like their style.

Good Luck!!

I saw this show for the first time in March. It was okay but not great. I definitely would not pay full price (got discount tickets at tix for tonight). They are funny but not as funny as I expected, there wasn't a moment where I was bursting out laughing (like I did at carrot top).

It has this whole kind of jazz theme and I am not a huge fan of jazz music.

I liked Teller the best and they were both nice enough to go in the lobby after the show and talk to the audience and take pictures and sign autographs.

I forgot to mention that I do love them in Katy Perry's Waking Up In Vegas video! LOL

I can't get enough of that song!

I enjoy their show, their expose of the frauds of magic, and some of their humor. Get your tickets at the half-price booths, so if you are disappointed, it won't cost as much!
