COMO, ITALY, November 15, 2024 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The show, scheduled to make its debut at Teatro Sociale di Como next spring, has been thrust into controversy due to substantial infringement claims regarding necessary licenses and copyright permissions.

The situation escalated when a formal warrant was issued by the legal team of the copyright and trademark owner, spearheaded by attorney Massimilano Scaringella. Prompt legal action is now being pursued to halt the show's progression, stressing the gravity of the unauthorized use of the protected intellectual property.

The trademark for Houdini — a name synonymous with unparalleled magical prowess and historic showmanship — is held within the EU by The House of Houdini. This institution, operating out of Budapest, Hungary, the birthplace of Harry Houdini himself, is renowned for its dedication to the custodianship and promotion of Houdini's legacy on an international level. The House of Houdini not only boasts the most extensive collection of Houdini's original memorabilia in Europe but also aims to honor his memory and protect his cultural heritage through immersive exhibits and authentic magical performances.

This pressing legal confrontation highlights the potent risks and responsibilities associated with the usage of revered historical figures' legacies, particularly when trademarks and copyrights are held by dedicated protective entities like The House of Houdini. Response from the Italian production company regarding this significant breach and their strategy to rectify the situation remains forthcoming.

Further updates will be disseminated as the case unfolds.
