Experience the wonder as you spiral into a world of magic on this intriguing display that examines and challenges the beliefs that guide your life.

Why Watch Derren Brown: Secret

Ever since his television debut in 2000, English mentalist and bestselling author Derren Brown has seen immense success both on and off stage. In fact, he won the highly coveted Laurence Olivier Award for two separate shows, one in 2006 (Something Wicked This Way Comes) and another in 2012 (Svengali). Brown was deeply influenced by the famous comedian Jerry Sadowitz, a man known for his savoury mix of magic and stand-up comedy. His show Mind Control has aired in several countries around the world, making it one of the most successful television shows based entirely on mentalism and practical magic. His long line of television hits serves as a testament to his ability to keep audiences hooked to the performance.

The Show

Brown will openly claim that he does not possess any manner of supernatural power. The entire show is a symphony of illusions, unconscious mental suggestions, showmanship, and a host of psychological tricks that are certain to entertain. In this particular version of his magic routine, Brown challenges audiences to reconsider the beliefs that shape their lives. With powerful storytelling and a large bag of intriguing magic tricks, Derren Brown is set to take New York by storm this season!

Price and ease of use on the website. The person was there on time for us to pick up our tickets. Unfortunately we were there @ 2 pm and left to get warm. Went back at 2:30 and girl was waiting for us. Very pleasant. My husband got a text letting us know she was there but not after she had to wait till we got back. I felt bad for her it was cold waiting outside
