Why this show?

Harry Houdini is the inspiration behind RENO's 2006 marching field show. The master illusionist makes an ideal subject because of the mystery that surrounded his life and death. Using the concepts inherent in magic illusion, misdirection, and slight of hand, RENO's field show evokes the same "How did they do that?" response. A combination of clever staging and time honored illusions make this one of the most unique field shows to date.
