Yeatland Wong in the Calgary Herald

From the article "Hobson: Behind the curtain for a good cause" by Louis B. Hobson in the Calgary Herald:
I honestly couldn’t resist this concept of theatre for charity. Audiences can have a fun night out knowing most of their ticket price is going to deserving charities.

If you wave the Kinsmen banner, it’s amazing who comes to your aid. We needed advice on how to stage the opening illusion and, voila, local magician and illusionist Yeatland Wong to the rescue. He has been an invaluable resource, not only for the mystifying cabinets illusion but on how to properly strap someone in a straight jacket.

Calgary and Orillia: Darcy Oake

From the Calgary Herald:
Oake’s final appearance that won him the contest is not actually an illusion.

He is strapped into a straitjacket and suspended by his ankles with a rope attached to a massive human bear trap that is programmed to snap shut in 58 seconds.

Watching him struggle to escape is truly nerve wracking.

Oake insists that mind-boggling escape pales in comparison to the water escape he will do when he appears at the Grey Eagle Casino Event Centre at 8 p.m. on June 23.

Pre-sale on NOW for the show at Casino Rama Resort in Ontario Sept 23rd!
