The Legend of Houdini
Saturday 29th March 2025
Location: The Little Princess Trust, The Hannah Tarplee Building, 22-25 Berrington Street, Hereford HR4 0BJ Map
We are delighted to host magician Greg Chapman to The Little Princess Trust with his new show 'The Legend of Houdini'!
Even though Harry Houdini passed away nearly 100 years ago, he remains one of the most famous magicians the world had known. This is mostly because Houdini, as well as being a respected magician and escape artist, was above all a wonderful self publicist.
Never one to let the truth get in the way of a good story, especially one about himself, Houdini created his own legend.
Now, modern magician and escape artist Greg Chapman (creator and performer of 'The Non-Psychic 'Psychic' Show'; and writer of 'Greg and Felicity's History of Magic') is taking to the stage with a new show, in which he performs effects and escapes inspired by Houdini, and shares some of the stories, both true and... exaggerated... that make up 'The Legend of Houdini'!
Greg is performing it here for us, a special show at The Hannah Tarplee Building!
Ticket sales from this event are donated to The Little Princess Trust. Doors open at 6:30pm. Starts at 7:30pm.
