Overview
Piff the Magic Dragon is the show you did not know you needed. John van der Put performs in a full dragon costume alongside his chihuahua assistant Mr. Piffles.
After gaining fame on America's Got Talent and Penn & Teller: Fool Us, Piff landed a permanent residency at the Flamingo.
Piff's show is the antidote to overproduced Vegas spectacle. It is intimate, personal, and laugh-out-loud funny.
