Houdini materializes in Malibu tonight

Houdini returns to the stage tonight in the new Malibu Playhouse production, Flim Flam: Houdini and the Hereafter. The play has its "Red Carpet Gala" premiere this evening at 8pm and then runs through August 3rd. I'll be at tonight's opening and will tweet pics of the festivities @HoudiniWild. I'll also be posting a review of the play in the coming days.
