Warren and Annabelle's is outstanding! Warren Gibson performs close-up magic in a gem of a small theatre for only 78 people each show. No disappearing tigers, ladies sawed in half, or floating assistants in a big show... just Warren and silver dollars appearing and disappearing only a few feet away from your seat. A rabbit out of a hat? Nope... how 'bout a bowling ball? Anyone who's been to a magic show has probably seen the linking rings... three solid metal rings that magically come together like the Olympic rings, then come apart. Warren does essentially the same trick, but uses wedding rings from people in the audience. The man is incredible.

We arrived at 5pm, but there's no need to get here too early. We were brought into Annabelle's, an upscale lounge with a ghostly piano player. Entertainment started at 5:30 as Annabelle "appeared" and began taking requests. Drinks, appetizers, and desserts were available until about 6:30, when we were brought into the theatre. Seating was free-form: our entrance tickets told us to enter through the right-hand door or the left-hand door. Those using the right-hand door took seats in the first three rows; those assigned to the left-hand door sat in the back two rows. This wasn't a big hardship, since the entire theatre is only five rows deep! Eight volunteers sat at the counter separating Warren from the audience.

Warren performed for close to two hours, doing his magic and bantering with the crowd. Besides being amazing, Warren was hilarious responding to comments - "This isn't TV... I can HEAR what you're saying!" - and getting a real back and forth going with a few people.

All in all, one of the best evenings of entertainment we've had anywhere.

Warren doesn't advertise much, relying on word of mouth to fill the house. With only 78 seats for each performance and a maximum of two shows a night, it's tough to get a seat on short notice, even using the various ticket services available on Maui. Recently, he set up a website, www.WARRENandANNABELLES.com, that you can use to get tickets in advance of your trip.

Ooh, what a fun evening. We chose to do just the drink and show but you can get a full dinner there (don't remember where we ate instead).

You sit in a restaurant type atmosphere and the ghost of Annabelle puts on a dinner show. She does a fantastic job for a ghost. After dinner and the pre-show, you go on in to the magic show. Now this is a very up-close show. There aren't too many people in the audience and you are right in close and almost on top of the magician. Wow, he was good. We couldn't figure most of his tricks and *I* won't give anything away ;-)

Definitely a must do. Website: .

If you only do one thing during the evening in Maui, Warren and Annabelle's Magic Show is a must see! From the pre-show piano show by Anabelle to Warren's top notch performance, you will not be disappointed!

As we were on our honeymoon after being married a week earlier in Kauai, we both were delighted to have front row seats. I became part of the show and boy was it great fun. I was in tears most of the time from laughter, even when I was the butt of his jokes. It was just a tremendous evening!

We skipped the dinner and just attended the show as we ate at Longhi's. It was the right decision. People had appetizers and seemed happy but we enjoyed our fine dinner at a great eatery! We also went to Ulalena and it was worth the money, $25 each. The aerial acts were very nice and was a joy to see the spirit of ancient Hawaii being enacted.

The first part of the show is enjoying drinks and appetizers/desserts in a large dining room, listening to piano music as provided by Annabelle. Call out any song title and she will play it for you, no tipping necessary!

The magician, Warren,is incredibly funny and amazingly gifted. It's difficult to describe the show, but the four of us thought it unique, full of laughs, and well worth the price. Many think it is the best show on the island. Look in the tourist discount books for a coupon and mention it when you make reservations - a must.
