Here is a very well-researched video from Dr. Daryn Reyman-Lock at the Barnum Museum exploring the story of Shirley the Elephant and Houdini's connection to the Palace Theater in Waterbury, Connecticut. I'll let you discover it yourself by clicking below.
Be sure to give the video a Like. For more, check out the Barnum Museum on YouTube and its official website. After all, Houdini was an admirer of Barnum!
Thanks for sharing, John! I very much appreciated your help!
