LINK: Hidden Room’s 'Houdini Speaks to the Living’ creates Halloween magic

The Hidden Room's production of Houdini Speaks to the Living has received a glowing review from austin360. The play features Patrick Terry as Houdini and Robert Matney as Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. It's running now through Oct. 30 at the York Rite Theater in Austin. A free performance will be held at the Harry Ransom Center on Halloween.

"Terry’s work as a close-up magician in Houdini Speaks to the Living is immaculate. The play is performed in the Hidden Room’s atmospheric Masonic hall playing space, with the audience surrounding Terry as he conjures his illusions, making his work here all the more impressive. The magic tricks are mostly old classics, but that does not make them any less mind-boggling or, at times, downright spooky, making this a perfect Halloween-season treat."
