Monkey Dungeon is a family business. Trick and Tara Kelly started designing and manufacturing straight jackets back in 2000. He has a theatre/film degree from The University of New Orleans and performed full time as a street performer for 20 years. Tara graduated with a degree in costume design from The University of New Orleans. Tara made the first straight jacket for Trick's show. Since then we have designed jackets that have been used in TV shows like Gotham, General Hospital, MSNBC's Mad Money, Heroes and the Tonight Show qith Jay Leno. They have been rocked by bands like Disturbed, Lil' Wayne, and Slipknot. They have appeared in movies like When in Rome and Clown Hunt. They are used in haunted houses, seen in Italian Vogue and used by professional escape artists around the world. Find us on facebook!
