Channel 4, May 2005

THE GATHERING

The Gathering was a specially recorded as-live show at a location which was kept secret from invited audience of students, celebrities, psychologists, psychics, taxi drivers and magicians.

Alongside dizzying displays of mind reading, remote viewing, and seemingly photographic recall of the Greater London A-Z, Derren also hypnotised the audience members so that after the performance, they would have no memory of what had happened. Spectators interviewed afterwards were unable to remember what they’d just seen.

STAGE & SCREEN

Something Wicked This Way Comes was Derren’s second stage show, winning the Laurence Olivier Award in 2006 for Best Entertainment Show. It toured the UK and played in the Cambridge Theatre, London. 

After having his face stamped in broken glass, Derren’s finale is a tour-de-force of prediction and influence involving newspapers from that day.  

 

“This is an evening of superlative entertainment and Brown is a superlative entertainer at the top of his game”

MESSIAH

Derren travels to the United States and, using a series of false names, attempts to convince leading figures in the worlds of Christian evangelism, alien abduction, psychic powers, mediumship and New Age thinking, that he possesses special powers in each of these fields.

Derren Brown: Messiah highlights our susceptibility to the power of suggestion with regard to beliefs, as well as ‘confirmation bias’ – our tendency to accept only things that support what we already believe and to ignore any evidence to the contrary.

Channel 4, May 2004

SÉANCE

Derren Brown: Séance brought students from Roehampton University together for a live séance in an old hospital in east London.

Before demonstrating the methods used by Victorian spiritualists to contact the dead, Derren explains to his volunteers that the halls have a history of paranormal activity following the suicide pact of twelve people in 1974…

At the time, SÉANCE was the most complained-about show in television history.

“Séance was a display of Brown’s psychological mastery. He’d proved that mediumship is bunk in little more than a hour and looked hot throughout into the bargain. And, as final devastating proof of Brown’s peerless insight, a caption came up at the end of the credits, explaining that the distraught and unnerved students would now be led into a quiet room and given pizza.”
