Lance Burton is very, very good at what he does. But I have to say he pretty much defines "cheesy magic act" for me. Even if he does it better than pretty much anybody else.
But I think that is just a bias against large stage magic acts anyway. I much prefer small stage and close up performances.
I did like the Penn & Teller large theater show at the Rio but that is because it is also really funny, if they were earnest about it I think I'd lose interest.
