    Attended A Very Terry Christmas Fator show which was great. Terry Fator is funny, entertaining and amazing. We get a kick out of his humor and his singing is amazing. This show had a great selection of Christmas song and we were amazed particularly how he sounded so much like Karen Carpenter. Overall, we had wonderful time. The venue is nice, staff professional and friendly, and snacks and drinks reasonable. Parking at Strat for locals is free. We also picked up a Winston puppet this time which is adorable and all proceeds from his merchandise sales go to helping military families through his foundation. Merry Christmas!

    An amazing family show that will keep you laughing the whole time you were there. Highly recommend this to anybody that stops in Vegas and would like to do something with their family.

    Yes, the Las Vegas name is synonymous with a plethora of unparalleled entertainment. There are spectacular shows, of every kind, for every taste, age and fantasy. However, there is only one Ventriloquist show, and it is that of Terry Fator, who is now at the Strat Hotel. He is a past winner of AGT (the second season), won that million dollars, and got a residency in Vegas. He has been playing Vegas for over a decade, at several notable resorts (Mirage, New York New York) before ending up at the Strat. What distinguishes this show from the others in Vegas is that, it is unique, unmatched, different, nostalgic and highly entertaining. Terry is an impersonator extraordinaire, who can mimic the voices of famous personalities and celebrities past (Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr.) and present. He takes you down memory lane. And he can sing too (superbly, I might add). All this is done with his mastery of ventroloquism via his many well known puppets. The grand finale is the song, We are the World, for which Terry performs in the voices of 19 of the iconic singers who were featured on the recording (Michael Jackson, Bruce Springsteen, Diana Ross, Cyndi Lauper, Paul Simon, Tina Turner, Lionel Ritchie, etc). The whole show is a testament to the brilliance of Terry Fator. It is a, "must see" when you are in Vegas. It is one of the best, if not the best and unforgettable shows, the city has to offer.

    Now at the Strat showroom. He does a good job with all of his characters, but some of his jokes fall a little flat. Most of his act is singing, and some comedy. He seemed a little scruffy, a little unkempt. We had plenty of laughs during the show. But, I wish it was more comedy and less singing. We saw what was supposed to be the family friendly version, but I definitely would rate it PG-13. Nice showroom. No drink service during the show.

    My adult son and I went to see this show on a Sunday evening. We were seated in a booth and were able to see the stage well plus projections were on both sides of the stage. The show was good with a few risqué jokes from the puppets and Terry doted on his wife in the audience telling their love story. Terry came around to the audience with the Kermit puppet, but didn't make it to our area. He's very talented and funny with diverse puppets. Photos during the show are encouraged, no flashes! No meet and greet for photos after the show and the show souvenir items were sparse and unimpressive.

    What a great show!! He was super talented and funny!! We had a great time watching him perform!! The turtle and Kermit the frog was a hit for the kids.

    Honestly never had interest in going until a coworker of mine gave me tickets he wasn't going to use. Was a fun show u get photo ops during the show and after plenty of laughs throughout

    Terry Fator is an amazing entertainer! I watched AGT when he won and man was he even more amazing in person! I can't wait to go and see one of his regular shows after the Christmas season ends! Bravo Terry and Merry Christmas.

    It's been 7 years since I saw Terry Fator on a Yelp Elite Event. The show is no longer at the Terry Fator Theatre at the Mirage. After shows began reopening following their Covid closures, Fator was moved to New York New York Hotel and Casino in a second floor room referred to as the Liberty Loft (although there is no signage in NY NY using that name). Rather, signs just say theater. The box office and elevators for the theatre are just beyond the sports book. I like this venue for his show better than the Mirage. It's more intimate and he's closer to the audience than at the Mirage. The stage is small with two stands and the mikes for the voices. Prior to the show starting, there is a video with the song "We Are the World" from the USA/Africa benefit. Later you learn that Fator sings all 15 voices in the opening video. He says he can do 200 different impressions. One of the puppets he brought out last night, Duggie, was new to me. I think I taught some Duggies in career. Other than that, the puppets were the good old standbys but with new jokes, some involving Covid, others simply making fun of himself. I never had as close a seat at the Mirage than I had last night at NY NY. I always thought his microphone was blocking my view of how much his lips moved, or didn't, when he did the different voices. The show ends the same way as before--a salute to active military, veterans, and he now includes first responders. He sings "God Bless the USA." I sometimes think performers use the patriotic ending to guarantee a standing ovation. You be the judge.

    What time do the doors open for a 5pm show?

    Hi Melissa. Doors open approx 30 mins before start of show. Therefore, for a 5pm show, doors will open around 4.30pm.

    Is there a lot of foul language in his show?

    Not really, I don't remember any profanity but some of the jokes were a little mature. Nothing disgusting, though.

As MOH, I planned the party and spent a lottt of time going through reviews on Yelp and Reddit bc there was a lot of pressure to find the best option and decide for the group. Many reviews of the bigger shows said the performers had been doing it for so long that they looked like they were just going through the motions.. that the acts were unimpressive.. that the theater was so big you could only see the tricks on a screen, or that it was overpriced. After all my research, I'm SO glad I decided on Frederic -- the bride said this magic show was her favorite part of the trip!! (and we went to Tao dayclub the day before lol) :) I love that it was in a small, intimate theater, so that you were up close no matter where you sat. And there was SO much audience interaction -- our bride even caught a frisbee and got to go on stage -- which was fun and helped make it even more special for her. The mentalism was such a cool departure from traditional physical magic tricks -- we all loved it and had many *gasp* moments. We even got to meet Frederic after, and he performed more mentalism up close, which was cool. HIGHLY recommend this show!! (Also, it was $30/ticket, which is a price you cannot beat in Vegas)

    Incredible. Magic…read morehas always been something that intrigued me, but seeing it live is a completely different experience. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't stop wondering how he was doing any of it. Mat Franco is probably best known for winning Season 9 of America's Got Talent and now performs his residency, Magic Reinvented Nightly, at The LINQ in Las Vegas. I don't want to say too much because part of the fun is experiencing it for yourself. What I loved most was how much he interacted with the audience. It didn't feel like he was just performing at the crowd. He involved people throughout the show and made the entire room feel part of the experience. Every time I thought I had something figured out, another trick would happen and completely change my mind. Seeing magic on TV is one thing, but seeing it happen right in front of you is mind-blowing. If you've ever been curious about magic or wanted to see a Vegas show that's different from the typical concerts and productions, I would definitely recommend this one. I left amazed and still thinking about some of the tricks afterward.

As soon as we sat down we became immediately chilled. The A/C was blowing full force from the vents in the wall behind us! Brrrr! It became so intolerable that my hubby mentioned our discomfort to one of the ushers. She kindly sat us closer to the stage on a nice cushioned bench. I couldn't believe that they made such nice accommodations for us! Mat Franco is very engaging and very family oriented. We enjoyed his magic show, which is family friendly. You could hear the kids let out oooohs and aaaahs throughout the show. We highly recommend this very entertaining show.

When the hot crooner started singing about being with men and women, I was nearly on the floor laughing! Great show with all of the typical saloon types, the madam, the employees, the mayor, preacher, etc. It was just hilariously great! The whole ambiance was very wild west and it showed all over. They really put a lot of work into this place! Everything from just the stage to the restrooms was on-theme. We were seated up on the stage which I don't necessarily think were the best seats in the end but it was great to be up there with the action around us. Next time I would get in front of the stage though. Really was a top notch show! The quiet nuns were also a laughing riot too!

    Came here on a Tuesday evening (7/14/26 show) after spontaneously getting tickets a few hours…read morebefore. We opted for the $70 tickets that were in the first level, back area towards the bar (there is a semi-obstructed view because of the lower ceiling, but I felt like it was worth the money saved because you really only miss like when the performers are high up in the air). It was also kind of an emptier show, so we got moved from the very back to the FRONT of the back area since the seats were empty. Which worked out for me because as an audience member I typically do not like being touched or interacted with by the performers. (pretty much a guarantee if you buy one of the seats in that inner circle area, you will 100% be touched, get bread thrown at you, or have to answer questions lol). Pros: - Very easy to get tickets the day of, but make sure you check various sites because they're randomly cheaper on some websites than others. - Honestly, a pretty entertaining variety show! It's different from Cirque shows because most of the acts are either pairs or individuals, and there's a LOT of variety. There's acrobatics, singing, dancing (tap, clog), some magic from the nuns, what I can only describe as breakdancing with a gigantic ring, comedy, etc. So it's not very repetitive and you see a lot of variation in skill and talent. Since you're also so close, you can literally see the performers flexing their abs and it's honestly a miraculous display of human skill and flexibility. Even though there's sexual innuendos and undertones, I honestly didn't feel that uncomfortable because the talent is very impressive. just packaged in a raunchy show haha. I had a good time and laughed a lot. - I could not stop laughing at the constant bread throwing. - Pretty decent drinks at the bar. I got a $12 matcha mocktail called the discos cowboy and it was actually DELICIOUS and so cute. - The entrance area was easy to find and all the staff we interacted with were pretty nice. - Very lively show and plot, again hats off to the acrobats and skill performers. Cons: - When you first go in and doors open, there's a "waiting" area with a bar that you have to wait in until the staff let you into the main seating area. This area was EXTREMELY stuffy and hot, with very little air circulation, and bodies packed pretty close to each other while waiting to get drinks at the bar or just waiting for the show. I really didn't like the 15 mins we waited in this area and would have just preferred to wait in the casino hallway outside the venue. - The comedy, while raunchy and entertaining, was a little too cheesy for me at times. Especially the jokes from the matriarch Irish lady who acts as the brothel owner - I felt like those jokes were very dad-ish and way too cheesy. - I personally really dislike crowd participation or being touched without warning so this part wasn't for me LOL. But I'm grateful we sat in the back. If you are super into this sort of thing, you will love it and you should sit in the front pew area or in the main circle area. Definitely don't bring your kids lol. I think I would be open to coming back and seeing a different variety of actors, since they say they change it up sometimes. Also the show is early enough in the evening (we went to the 9:30pm showing) where you could totally still go out to the club after. I don't regret this experience haha.

    Absolutely spectacular! This is hands down the best show in Vegas…read more My family and I booked this show for a Saturday night with no knowledge of what it would be like and were simply amazed. We had seen the Cirque du Soleil Show "O" before and this just does not even compare. I recommend getting seats in the center, facing the middle of the stage, as close to the front row as possible. Sitting in this section immerses yourself into the show. Logistically, this is a great venue. It is located in Treasure Island. It is in the back of the casino. Although there are signs throughout the casino leading you there, it is quite easy to get turned around on your way there. Once you find it, it is simple to enter. Use the restroom before you get in though because it is located outside of the theater! We arrived around 20 minutes prior to showtime and had no wait at all to enter. They offer commemorative photos for purchase, which we declined. There was no security which surprised me. There were no metal detectors or bag searches. Inside the theater, there is a large concessions stand with snacks and drinks. Even close to show time, there was no line there either. They have a lot of staff available to guide you to your seats - it's very efficient. The seats were actually very comfortable. They were soft, spacious, and had a lot of leg room. Even though there were no lines for anything, you absolutely need to get there early. The "show" starts before is set time as there is a comedic character that hilariously interacts with the crowd. This is a must-see and had everyone cracking up with the unexpectedness of it. The show itself is pure spectacle. It is a bizarre exhibition of talent and creativity. You will see everything from trapeze, contortion, acrobatics, dance, balancing acts, comedy, and live music from an orchestra, band, and singers. Seeing these athletes push the limits of what the human body can do in such a beautiful manner is incredibly thrilling. The costumes are beautiful and the sets are amazing. Every scene change and act is so unexpected and really leave you at the edge of your seat. You quite literally have to keep your eyes peeled open to make sure you don't miss anything. There are so many different things happening at once all across the stage, on the floor, the ceiling, and even along the walls and walkways of the audience. There is no clear plot so you may find yourself sitting there trying to figure out what it all means. Some people may find this boring but it truly makes the whole thing more fascinating. There is an obvious intention behind every little thing, it is just unclear what it is. It is truly a mystery. I have recommended this show to everyone I know and I would love to see it again!

    This show has been running for 30 years, and it kind of shows. Although I'm sure the acrobatic acts…read morehave changed over the years to keep it fresh, it's still entertaining, though not as grandiose as other Cirque shows. Most of the show is nonsensical, so don't look for a plot. Something to consider if you think to yourself, I've seen this before, the fact that the show HAS been running for 30+ years means those other shows stole it from this one. Logistically, I had to pick up the tickets at will call, and when I arrived 35 minutes before show time, the line to get in was already snaking through the casino. While I panicked a little, the line moved super fast when they opened the doors. I didn't need to get into that long line. An important thing to remember, if you pick up your tickets at Will Call, you need some ID and the credit card you used to buy them. I was lucky I bought them online the night before, while I was already in Vegas, but I often use a different credit card when buying from home. So to cum up, depending on your taste, this show represents the original Cirque du Soleil concepts, and that's what you'll see.
