My husband and I saw Scott's show for our anniversary. It was amazing. He had many different types of mind reading and magic and it was very interactive for the audience. I have no idea how he does it, but he was amazing. I would definitely recommend his show to anyone who wants to go do something different than dinner and a movie. Prepare to have your mind blown.

50's and 60's Graffiti Gold Show

90 minute stroll down memory lane at the best live performance venue in Sedona... Top Rated Show... Full Bar... Full Menu... If you're a fan of 50's & 60's Graffiti Gold, you'll love this genuinely authentic blast from the past. It's a staged performance weaving stories of nostalgia, recalling how great it was growing up in this country from the mid-50's to mid-60's, punctuated with Rock and Roll Gold from the era. "Tom Tayback and the Daddy O's" are a true throwback, fondly remembering the days of Juke Boxes, 45 Records, Soda Shops and Sock Hops in the gym. Get nostalgic and leave your cares at home, cuz the memories of those good old days will fly unchecked as you relive a time when music refused to let you sit still.
