KIRBY VANBURCH SHOW



The KIRBY VANBURCH SHOW, the world's largest magic show and a Branson
mainstay, is knocking them dead in an all new theatre-The Kirby VanBurch
Theatre, 2353 West Highway 248.


And with the new location comes an all new show. Kirby and his beautiful
wife Bambi have been very busy this past year creating new illusions,
costumes, and music that is out of this world! My wife and I saw his new
show about two weeks ago and loved it. We are "Kirby regulars" you might
say! 'Branson,' the Royal White Tiger is back, and, in addition to the
white tigers, Bengal tigers, spotted leopards and black leopards there are
snakes, chickens, ducks and even a vanishing unicorn!

One of the most memorable moments is when Kirby asks for a volunteer from
the audience. The night we were there a little boy, around 4 years old, ran
up to the stage and said "I want to be a magician!" The whole audience
melted that night as Kirby's responses to him were right on! His
personality is wonderful on stage and off stage. Kirby gave the little boy
a miniature car, and about 4 certificates of free dinners around Branson.

And the world's largest magic show just got bigger and better. Bambi
VanBurch
, Kirby's beautiful and talented wife, is producing and performing
in the 2006 show. Bambi is performing several new illusions of her own,
including a hilariously weird bird routine that has to be seen to be
believed. She also comes prancing out on real vanishing unicorn! The little
girls around me were truly amazed at how beautful she looked.

Bambi and Kirby have brought in a never-before-seen specialty set that is
truly amazing! Andre Soumatrin does it all! He balances on a one wheel
bike and throws flames and balls all around that stage! Andre really got
the crowd hyped up and even did some audience participation.

We got to talk with Kirby and Bambi after the show and they shared with us
their exciting new renovations of making an animal habitat that customers
will be able to walk through and see up close and personal all of the
beautiful cats. There is also a VIP box being built on the side of the
auditorium that will be for the very important people in Kirby and Bambi's
life. The best part of the show, and my wife will agree was when Kirby
shared his story about his grandma and how she taught him about the bible.
It was really a heartfelt moment. Oh and incase you were wondering, all of
your Kirby favorites are back by popular demand, including the finale where
the world's greatest magician performs the world's fastest illusion-landing
a helicopter on stage in a split-second.

I would recommend Kirby and Bambi to everyone I know! Good luck and keep up
the good work!
