I don't usually go crazy over a show but after recently seeing the Bart Rockett Show, I went crazy! My family and I purchased the family pass for $50 and sat back and enjoyed the show immensely. The show is about 1 hour and 45 minutes in running length and features 4-5 dancers with Bart Rockett featuring his ventriloquism, comedy, large stage illusions, and other variety entertainment. It is a fine production with modern music and at $50 for the entire family: a great value! I would highly suggest everyone see this show. The professionalism depicted in this show should be carried over into every other Branson show in my opinion. I can't wait to go back in the fall!

This was a wonderful show for the whole family. Bart had some of the youngsters on stage and also went out into the audience and had fun with the adults as well.His love for children really shows! Bart's show was amazing with the illusions he performed, the beautiful girls dancing, and the ventriloquist performance was outstanding! He shared his family support as a young boy getting started and encouraged everyone to persue their dreams. He is truly a family man and even brought his 9 month old out at the end of the show. Great Show!

Thanks to Bart Rocket and his family for making a wonderful evening for my family this past week. His show; while it had minor technical glitches; was fantastic. His ventriloquism (sp?) is amazing and his 6 dancers really add to the production. I was suprised at the low crowd but really like the theater hes in. Bought a family pass for $49 for my family and they wanted to go back. It was good cheap fun.

In my opinion, the minute Bart Rockett steps on stage one immediately loves him. His stage presence, comedy, ventrilliquisim, and illusions all justify his extreme talent. It is a smaller production, however, it is a more personable, intimate setting. Most children are drawn to Mr. Bart Rockett and enjoy his show more so than the other Magic shows in town. I enjoyed myself and my kids did too!

I really enjoyed the show. It was better than expected. Bart has a lot of great humor and seems like a genuine person. He is very talented and his show is different from most in Branson. I was also surprised about a vocalist being in the show. She was dynamic and had a lot of stage presence. Everytime she came on stage, I couldn't take my eyes off of her. I really loved the christian song. It touched my heart. The ending of the show touched my heart as well.

I loved Bart's illusions. My favorite was the Grapefruit trick and when he lifted the girl in the air. He is talented. His jokes about Arkansans were hilarious! I also loved the Vocalist. She was fantastic, gave me chills. Her ability is truly powerful. She has a lot of pzazz, and is also a very good dancer. I liked the show a lot and will recommend it to others.

I would like to start my review by saying WOW, I honestly thought that Kirby Van Birch was the worst magician in Branson, that is until September of 05 rolled around.

See that is when Bart Rocket came to town, and proved that a David Copperfield wannabe with no rehearsal time nor appropriate budget could wake up one morning and say, 'Hey, let's do a couple of illusions in Branson.' I went to see Bart Rocket and went openminded with no preconceived ideas and wound up finding more reasons to like Kirby Van Birch.

Now I know that I’m saying a few harsh things, however I take it personally when someone does not take the art seriously and tries to take credit for other magicians' creations. As far as the ventriloquism, one more time, he needs to come up with original pieces instead of messing up brilliant ideas from those better than himself.

The box office staff along with the ushers were very friendly and in my opinion would be the reason that people would go back. My overall review, if you want to pay 27.00 for a nap than go to Motel 6; if you want to see great magic than check out any of the other magicians around town.

Recently my family and I went to see Bart Rockett's show. Bart had previously performed in Branson but has returned and we were so pleased. While like any show in Branson, it's getting it's legs under it but we loved this show very much. It opens with a lovely lady singing a song about being blessed. She sings again during a spot reminiscent of Romeo and Juliet that took my breath away. After that, Bart makes his appearance and it's like you are among friends.

His show isn't scripted and there are many personal moments. He even used a ring my husband had given to me for our anniversary and intertwined it with 2 others in the audience bringing gasps from my husband. I still don't know how he did it. He called my 7 year old out of the audience and he will never forget that moment and hasn't stopped talking about it. He has lovely dancers and his illusions, while not your "David Copperfield" grand illusions, they leave you asking the question "how'd he do that".

He winds personal often touching true stories throughout his show which left a tear in my eye towards the end. He introduced his lovely wife Kami and their brand new beautiful baby boy Kadan to the audience, and a proud daddy he is. He is also very accomplished in ventriloquism and I laughed so hard I had tears in my eyes when he started this part of the show. The audience was small that night but very appreciative and responsive. He really deserves larger audiences because what makes this show different is the personal one-on-one Bart does with his audiences.

It's not just what's on-stage but it's who is in his audience that counts and if they are entertained and seeing a good quality show. I am definitely going back. Oh, and his quick changes with his shirts he wears would put anyone to shame how'd he do that???).
