We vacationed in Branson this past August. The highlight of our vacation was on our last night there---the Kirby Van Birch show!!! Our kids loved it! I was very impressed w/the ending...when he shared his relationship w/Jesus with the audience! We had a great time and plan to return! You definitely leave in awe of how he and Bambi do their illusions! The animals are GREAT! Definitely worth attending! We have our picture on display and the kids talk about that evening frequently! We have encouraged others to go to the show!

Kirby has a new place out on Highway 248 now. He really put on a good show and involves the audience. He uses animals which was awesome to see. It was amazing how he did some of the things he did. How do they do it?!?!

This is a fun, family-oriented magic show. Kirby interacts with the audience, making it very memorable. He incorporates tigers and motorcycles into the show. Big effects. There was a good comedian between sets when we saw the show, but these rotate.

This is a must see for anyone coming to Branson. This was my family's first time seeing a magician of Kirby's magnitude in person. We were astounded and amazed at the illusions and tricks he performed. You'll leave this show asking yourself, "How did he do that?!"

With Doug Henning as his mentor, Kirby Van Birch is carrying on the tradition of spectacular magic. Kirby’s interest in magic began as child, when his Mother gave him a magic kit. His practice and hard work paid off when he was recognized, by his peers, as the 1999 International Magician of the Year. This is the highest award that a magician can receive.

Kirby Van Birch puts on a First-Class show. In addition to Kirby’s amazing magic, the show is filled with light comedy. Our favorites have Kirby wringing out his lovely wife Bambi. With her head and body in separate boxes, Kirby twists her head until her body looks like a wet wash cloth. Kirby performs a wonderful trick, that was first performed by Harry Houdini. In this illusion, Kirby passes right through a solid plate-glass mirror. Before he begins, he asks a young man from the audience to come up onto the stage and inspect the mirror. In every show we have seen, this always provides a few big laughs. Another illusion that provides a laugh is when Kirby cuts two beautiful assistants in half, then is confused and reattaches the wrong legs to the wrong body. You will see Kirby push several swords through a very small box with an assistant inside. Kirby also performs the oldest illusion known to man, the Ancient Egyptian Magic Sand. The grand finale is thrilling. With wonderful theatrics, Kirby makes a full sized helicopter appear on stage.

During the show, Kirby had a Chinese juggler perform. He was amazing. He would throw a heavy Chinese vase into the air and catch it on his head. He would balance and spin the vase without toughing it with his hands. I had never seen anyone so skilled. It is hard to describe, but once you see it, you will amazed.

Kirby is also a great humanitarian. He founded the White Tiger Foundation, which helps save endangered animals around the world. Kirby holds a government license from the US Department of Interior for his endangered animals programs. Kirby includes some of these animals in his show. One is a large, white Bengal Tiger.

Of course, there is a gift shop at Kirby's theater. But this one has a counter full of wonderful and easy magic tricks that will amaze your friends. There is a magician that will demonstrate the tricks for you. We always buy a couple, so our magic collection is ever growing. If you buy only one trick, make it the "Odd Ball". My co-workers are still scratching their heads.

My whole family gives the Kirby Van Birch show a Big Thumbs UP!
