Derren Brown: Only Human

Only Human is a new live show by Derren Brown, combining mind-reading, psychological illusion and storytelling. It is staged at the Apollo Theatre on Shaftesbury Avenue in London's West End.

Only Human is a brand-new production by Derren Brown, presented after a tour of the UK and Ireland. The performance pairs mind-reading and psychological illusion with storytelling that is personal in its approach. Its subject is what it means to be human: how we perceive the world, what we believe, and where reality gives way to illusion.

The production is staged at the Apollo Theatre, a theatre on Shaftesbury Avenue in London's West End. Ideas about perception and belief sit at the centre of the show, alongside the illusions themselves, so the evening is a theatre production built on narrative rather than a sequence of unconnected demonstrations.

Some performances are interpreted in British Sign Language and others are audio described, which makes the show accessible to a wider audience.
