Upon arriving, part of what I liked was that the theatre definitely gave off Arizona vibes with its Native American architecture. We sat at the upper level. Another thing I like is that it's an intimate theater. This means you'll have a good view pretty much from anywhere you sit, including in the back which is where we were. The seats are reasonably comfortable and we enjoyed the performance. During the intermission, I got a local beer which was reasonably priced for an event venue. All-in-all, a great experience.

Parking and walking was easy. We bypassed the crowd by arriving about 10 minutes before the start of the show, so both the line to check-in and the bar were short. As others have mentioned, there is a metal detector at check-in and there is a size limit on bag size. The ushers were super helpful and I was surprised to see they had booster seats, which I hadn't considered brining. I am glad they offer them, it came in handy. The show itself was fantastic. The costumes were lovely, the screenplay was humorous, and the performances were all solid. We're not season ticket holders but are considering it for the future. Our daughter loved the show.

This was never communicated ahead of time--nothing on the tickets, no warning, nothing. I asked about a refund, and the on-site manager--who appeared very young and inexperienced--told me he'd have to "check with higher-ups." There was no attempt to resolve the situation or offer any real help. Just dismissive and unprofessional. Sure, I could have taken my purse back to my car, but it was parked over a mile away. That's not a reasonable solution once you're already at the venue and in line. Policies like this need to be clearly communicated in advance. Leaving people stranded at the door is unacceptable. Overall, a frustrating and poorly managed experience.

Then the venue suddenly changed from Dante's Fire (Grant/Tucson Blvd) to the Viscount Suites (Brdwy/Swan-ish). Location wasn't problematic but part of the appeal (and brightly underscored in their advertising) was the gourmet meal at the behest of Iron Chef Ken Foy. The circumstances for the abrupt change had absolutely Nothing to do with Magic Dinner Theater (MDT). Rather, Dante's themselves had the rug pulled out by their building's owner when they announced sudden closure of the premises for remodeling leaving both MDT and Dante's without a venue. MDT did a remarkable job (as explained by the boss and MC, Ross H.) finding a replacement venue and relocating all of their equipment in a matter of one week. Suffice to say, the dinner was a bummer, at merely cafeteria quality (green beans, mashed potatoes and thin turkey slices with gravy). I didn't even bother photographing it. That said, the "theater" part of the MDT was a joy, with the entire event running from 6:30 - 10pm. There were six tables of 10 people each and it appeared that every table was sold out. With the exception of one table that had four kids, it also appeared as though everyone was "coupled." Starting (almost) promptly at 6:30p each table had a solo magician performing various (very impressive) card tricks right in front of you. After about 10-12 minutes the magicians would rotate. For nearly an hour you are literally blown away by the sleight of hand of each magician. Then there's a pause while "dinner" (ahem) is served which takes about an hour (salad; turkey; cannoli). Iced Tea is included but wine ($7) and well drinks (simple cocktails at $8) can be ordered from the wait staff at those super reasonable prices. During dinner is when the murder mystery takes place. Everyone is provided some clues and characters along with a police report and you have that dinner-hour to solve the mystery as a table. Three tables (including ours :) identified the character who committed the murder, the motive, and the lethal instrument (all three are required). One person gets designated as the table rep to collect a (inexpensive) gag/prize. The main event follows dinner and consists of another 45 minute show on the main stage by the featured/headliner magician. Throughout the show a handful of folks will be selected to help the headliner. All were female and none flatly refused. The magicians were all gracious whenever making you part of the public show and that is appropriate. After the show I asked how frequently the mystery changes and I was told there are 3-4 different plots so having gone to one doesn't foreclose another viewing down the road. The Viscount proved to be a valiant stand-in venue, save for the food. If the food doesn't/cannot elevate I would strongly urge Ross and Co to shrink the fanfare surrounding the food (and shrink the ticket fee) accordingly. Other than that, this was/is a really nice time.
