CANADIAN MASTER ILLUSIONIST DARCY OAKE STUNS UK AUDIENCES WITH BOX ESCAPE ON BBC’s THE ONE SHOW
CANADIAN TOUR BEGINS OCTOBER 31, 2015
Monday, August 24, 2015 // Toronto, ON – In the tradition of the world’s greatest escapologists, Canadian master illusionist Darcy Oake has sealed his place among the ancient craft’s most daring performers. In what is being called the largest illusion ever performed on the BBC Broadcast House, the Winnipeg-born magician escaped a wooden crate, held from a crane while handcuffed three-stories high, in an exhilarating outdoor spectacle witnessed by a mesmerized audience lining the BBC lot and to a viewing audience of over 4.5-million on Friday evening as part of The ONE Show. North American fans can now watch the illusion, which was just posted via YouTube: http://bit.ly/darcyboxescape2015 – Download link available by request.
