Period 38/30/18The American StoryThe Roaring TwentiesPartner Presentation ProjectDue date: 9/6/18The daring feats of Houdini were popular with all people—rich and poor, immigrants and longtime citizens. One of the theories about this connection is that his daring matched the times. The Roaring Twenties were known for the flaunting of convention and for the sometimes wild extravagances and fads of the flapper culture. Flappers were young people who defied the conservative styles of their elders, wearing flashy costumes, and dancing and listening to jazz. This “throwing caution to the winds” society could no doubt connect with the seemingly wild stunts Houdini put on for the public’s amusement.
