Calgary's Masters of Magic in the Calgary Herald

Back in September, we posted about the show "Houdini's Legacy -- Calgary's Masters of Magic."  On Tuesday, it was covered in the Calgary Herald!

 

From the October 20th article "Calgary magicians to honour one of the greatest" by Louis B. Hobson at the Calgary Herald:

[Dayle] Krall is the only woman in the world currently performing Houdini’s Water Cell Escape in the original upside-down position. Her repertoire also includes the Milk Can, the canvas straightjacket and The Cube.

Krall is joined in this Houdini tribute by such Calgary magicians as Paul Alberstat, Michael Berends, James Jordan, Ryan Pilling, Malcolm Russell, Richard Sherry, Yeats Wong and Amilee Hagon.

Calgary: Houdini's Legacy -- Calgary's Masters of Magic [Oct 23]

From TheGrandYYC.ca/houdini: 

On October 23, Calgary's finest magicians gather to mark the centenary of his death; an evening of sleight of hand, illusion and impossible escapes staged in his honour. The night builds to its climax with Dayle Krall, "The Houdini Girl," performing the Water Cell Escape: shackled, inverted and submerged, with only seconds of air and no margin for error.
