I think so -- does the Brookville (or Brookfarm?) Inn of Magic ring a bell? It
was in Maryland, between
Georgia and Connecticut, inside the beltway. Unfortunately, it went out of
business about 1985 or so. I still remember them linking together 6 or 8
wedding rings belonging to audience members - and my ex-wife being chosen
to be levitated during the grand finale. (She >never< would tell me what
really happened up there on stage, either!)
