Right now Tristan McGough is rewriting a piece about Houdini, entitled “Houdini Escapes from Wisconsin.” It should be fun and interesting to speculate why this magician/spiritualist was originally from Wisconsin... Best of all it is Free. Free. Free.

“Plays in Madison and Milwaukee, even movies, have become so expensive to attend that no one remembers we can do it for free, if we keep it simple,” says poet John Lehman who has launched the Cambridge Word Theater through the local Humanities Council. No one will get paid and no one will have to pay. Free. Free.” Questions? Call John at 608-235-2377.
