Derren Brown Biography

Derren began his UK television career in December 2000 with a series of specials called Mind Control. In the UK his name is now pretty much synonymous with the art of psychological manipulation. Amongst a varied and notorious TV career Derren has played Russian Roulette live convinced middle-managers to commit armed robbery led the nation in a séance stuck viewers at home to their sofas successfully predicted the National Lottery motivated a shy man to land a packed passenger plane at 30000 feet hypnotised a man to assassinate Stephen Fry and created a zombie apocalypse for an unsuspecting participant after seemingly ending the world. He has also written several best-selling books and – a first in the history of magic – has toured with eight sell-out one-man stage shows. The shows have garnered a record-breaking five Olivier Award nominations for Best Entertainment and won twice. This means Derren has had the largest number of nominations and wins for one-person shows in the history of the Awards.
