Coming off a 5-year residency at the Tropicana in Las Vegas, David Goldrake brings his internationally acclaimed, award-winning magic to Mistique Dining in Utah for just a few nights.

David has performed for royalty, celebrities, and crowds of thousands… and through this weekend, you have a chance to get an intimate, front-row seat to his mesmerizing show.

Additionally, all guests are treated to a 5-course meal. (My wife and I went last night, and we both agreed it was one of the coolest things we’ve ever experienced.)

Conversation Starters 🗣️

We like to give you something interesting to talk about on your date night. Here are some questions you can ask on your date that might lead to some meaningful conversation:

• How have you changed in the last year?

• What adventures would you like to have before you die?

• If you could live during any other time period in history, when would you choose to live and why?

_{These questions come from the Gottman Card Decks app. Download it free here.}
