A nostalgic journey through the history of Magic performance in Vaudeville.
AIR DATE 1/1/83
Harry Blackstone came to the Twin Cities in April of 1983 to tape a KTCA special. He did three shows at the Orpheum Theater before invited audiences and KTCA cameras. With its dancing girls in glittering brief costumes, its tumbling clowns, and its flashing lights, Blackstone’s magic show is charmingly hokey, luring its audience into gasping at his grand illusions.
