Discover Houdini in D.C. this weekend

Just a reminder that Atlas Obscura will host a special Houdini event in Washington, D.C. this Saturday, April 16, from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM. "Obscura Day 2016: Houdini Escapes DC" will feature a walking tour of Houdini's Washington, rarities from the collection of Ken Trombly, magic and escapes by Dean Carnegie, and a picnic lunch of Cherry Pie (a Houdini favorite).

This event takes place 100 years to the week that Houdini performed in Washington during his 1916 vaudeville tour.

You can find all the details and purchase tickets at the Obscura Day 2016 event website.

    Thanks John for posting this. We are sold out from what I've been told. I'm familiar with Ken Trombly's collection of Houdini items and it's fantastic. My role will be a recreation of Houdini's escapes and magic. Working on my Houdini voice now :)
