The House Theatre's Death and Harry Houdini
Death and Harry Houdini
In this daring, funny, suspenseful, mixed-media musical biography from the House Theatre of Chicago, Harry Houdini walks on glass, swallows razors and saws people in half. But that's all just a warm-up for the most stunning stunt of all: the escape from the Water Torture Cell. Ten dollar student/industry rush tickets for sale one hour prior to curtain, if available.
