Watch Kalita Magic VIdeo on Facebook!
Magician KALITA once offered the cash to a local father and son if they could successfully use a long piece of rope to tie him up beyond escape. It took over ten minutes to tie up the magician but took less than four minutes for him to escape. KALITA has appeared on a magic man from LaPorte Indiana who has performed his craft several times on Chicago’s WGN-TV.
Many times KALITA also performs straitjacket-escape stunts. KALITA pulled off an escape hanging upside down from the Franklin Street bridge in Michigan City to show his support for the Chicago Cubs’ bid for a World Series championship. It took only six minutes for him to break free of the jacket and once he did, KALITA while still dangling from a rope around his ankles over Trail Creek, released a banner stating “Go Cubs.”
KALITA’s 19-year-old daughter, Mya, is sometimes the subject for his daring illusions, in addition to acting as an onstage assistant. “She’s been helping me since she’s been 2 years old,” said Kalita, who is known professionally as an extricationist with the all-capitals name KALITA.
And, don’t let the location fool you. Mascot Hall of Fame turns itself in to a night club at night and a kid’s playground during the day. This promises to be an evening you will not soon forget. You might be a winner of a door prize too!
