Please re-ask this in the escape section and you'll get a larger response.
But basically, you are locked in, then you escape, It's not much different then thumb cuffs or the Siberian chain escape as far as effect goes. You are in then you are out... just like... you have a Mi•••• box and you have a BA box, which one works best and how will the audience respond- type of question. Both boxes look and work somewhat differently but the effect is, that it was empty and now there is a rabbit, Same idea with pick a card and find it somewhere else or... any of the several escapes that are performed under cover. Some are bigger some are smaller. You may use music or not. You may put them on a spectator to show they are real, or not. The ONLY difference is that you wouldn't put a kid in the stocks because they might assume if they can pull their hand out, so can you. Up to about the age of 6, children have a problem with volumes.

Jay -
I use to put a volunteer from the audience (older child) in the illusion, and perform a substitution illusion, where I end up in the illusion at the end. It was not merely an escape. This idea for this comedy presentation was in David Ginn's book, "Magic and Monsters (for kids I love)". BTW, I don't think that the Abbott's Stocks of Zanzibar had holes for the hands... just for the neck. - Donald
