As a live performer his shows have played to sell-out audiences across the UK and in 2006, Something Wicked This Way Comes won the Olivier Award in the Best Entertainment category. At the end of its second and final year of touring around the UK, this one-man stage show was re-staged at The Old Vic in London.

This DVD features that special performance and captures Derren at his hilarious, dramatic and spellbinding best. Derren takes the live theatre audience on a journey of psychological persuasion, lie-detection, scepticism, sumliminal imagery and Victorian-style pain control. The finale of the show is a tour-de-force of prediction, influence and showmanship that leaves the audience begging for more.

Extras – deleted scenes and behind the scenes footage.

Synopsis
More 'magic, suggestion, psychology, misdirection and showmanship' from the psychological illusionist Derren Brown. Here Derren brings his mind-bending powers to the London stage for his Laurence Olivier Award-winning show SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES. The show fuses Derren's established sleight-of-hand trickery (his highly original method of selecting audience members to join him onstage is entertaining in itself) with impressive feats of memory, and amazing--if slightly nauseating--acts of endurance. Recorded live in June 2006 at The Old Vic Theatre at the end of its hugely successful touring run.

Customer Reviews

Simply amazing
If you like Derren Brown, I see no reason why you wouldn't buy this DVD. Everything Derren does on the TV that leaves you amazed you will see in this live show.

The best part about the show, is the main trick he does, which goes right to end of the show and he even shows you and tells you how it is done. Amazing stuff.

scary,scary man!!!
Derren is brilliant once again.............if you have been to see him live this year like I did,then you will love this DVD,he is probably the scariest man alive!!!!
Brilliant,award winning stage show.

Something wicked this way comes
Derren's live show is amazing, by now most people have seen his TV show and the live show is pretty much the same except with a few stunts that are to extreme for TV.
The best thing about the live show is the trick that goes through the whole set and is explained at the end!

Buy this, you won't regret it!
