I was born in 1972. To my generation, Doug Henning opened the door magic. I remember becoming transfixed with awe and laughing at the same time. He was a revolution on the stage, and an inspiration. He made making illusion look like fun and a terrifically exciting adventure. To rephrase the Lenny Bruce quote, "He wasn't a magician. He was Doug Henning." I hope his theme park gets made. See you there.
