A while back, I interviewed magician Kayla Drescher on Talking Travel for Global Traveler. Although she's a Chicagoan, I have never met her. That changed last week.
I saw her post on social media about a new project she had, long with Harrison Lampert. The couple was opening a new entertainment spot on the near northwest side of Chicago. Fortunately, I was free that night and was able to make the big event.
Cosmic Underground Theater opened a few weeks prior, but this was the ribbon-cutting ceremony. I talked to both Kayla and Harrison about it all. About a year of planning led to this moment. The theater will host magic shows, workshops and comedy (and probably more as it really gets going).
It's housed in a cool building and i love what they did with the setup. It's intimate, capable of holding about 40 patrons, but I think that limit will be tested.
Kayla and Harrison are two exciting folks. I can see their passion. I told them they would see me back there and I plan on keeping that promise.
