About the show: It's not just magic - it's Xtreme Magic. And that involves illusions, women, rock music, fake smoke and cats. Yes, cats. Big ones. It's the largest display of some of the most exotic cats in the world, or so the show's announcer boasts at the beginning of the act.

Arthur's act features a cast of big cats: a white tiger, a snow leopard, a black African leopard and even a liger, a mix of lion and tiger. His tricks run the gamut - from slicing an assistant into nine pieces to making a helicopter appear out of nowhere - and feature plenty of felines throughout the show. It's a magical, mystical program that makes for a purr-fect afternoon.

Show Times for Xtreme Magic Starring Dirk Arthur: Wednesday through Monday at 4 and 7 p.m.

Tickets for Xtreme Magic Starring Dirk Arthur: General admission starts at $27.50 (plus tax and fees) and will get you a tight seat at a crowded table. It's worth the upgrade for booth seating, which begins at $28.50 and is far more comfortable than the alternative.
