Derren Brown: Master Of Mind Control & Psychological Illusion Brings His New Show To Theatre Royal Brighton

The award-winning master of mind control and psychological illusion, Derren Brown, returns to Theatre Royal Brighton with his new live show, Only Human.

The content of the show is still under wraps, but it is guaranteed to give audiences a mind-blowing experience that will take their breath away.

Derren Brown said: 

"After a year off from touring, I am ready to start the momentous climb to putting together another show. I've just realised it"s my 11th. 

"Each show begins with a blank canvas and the question of what I could do with a thousand or more people locked in a room with me. It's exciting, very exciting." 

Only Human is Derren Brown's 19th tour. His previous shows have garnered a record-breaking five Olivier Award nominations for Best Entertainment, winning twice – the largest number of nominations and wins for one-person shows in the history of the Awards.
