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.
