Illusionist Hans Klok inherited a number of moving boxes with magical material from the Jewish magician Theo Bamberg, better known as Okito. For Klok, Okito is a hero. Who was this once world-famous magician, who enchanted people all over the world with his arts in the last century? The Jewish Museum is preparing an exhibition about him and his fellow Jewish magicians. Just before the Second World War, Theo Bamberg managed to flee our country with the help of his son David, also a magician and known as Fu Manchu. His other son Donald joined the resistance in the Netherlands, was betrayed and survived ten concentration camps.
