Scranton was one of the leading vaudeville stops, and hardly a movie about show business of that era fails to mention the city.

As a star Harry Houdini traveled to the area as well. (Harry Houdini established his brother in the escape business allowing him to do his escapes and magic tricks, a sign of true family loyalty.) Two of Harry Houdini's early years in show business were with the Welch Brothers Circus out of Lancaster, Pennsylvania that traveled throughout the area. They did quite well in the area, and in the rest of Pennsylvania. Harry Houdini and his brother Hardeen appeared many times in Scranton and Wilkes-Barre.
