The traveling exhibition, Houdini Art and Magic opens today at the Skirball Cultural Center in Los Angeles. The Skirball is also featuring an additional retrospective of Jewish magicians, Masters of Illusion: Jewish Magicians of the Golden Age. Having had the honor or attending the previews, I can assure you, this is one you don't want to miss!
Keep watching Wild About Harry for news of upcoming events and special programing starting in May.
Dammit! It's ending just one month before I'll be there.
ReplyDeleteOh by the way, I saw Fast Five today and there was a brief mention of Houdini, in reference to a super-secure vault. Someone said "Not even Houdini could bust into this thing."
Oh, that's great to know there's a Houdini reference in Fast Five. Thanks, Decophile. Is it just me, or has Houdini suddenly exploded into popular culture lately?
ReplyDeleteHoudini and Historical Magic sure seem to be THE hot topics this year.
