I saw Derren's show at the Liverpool's Empire Theatre last year and loved it. Especially the dancing table!!
I saw it the year before and I guess the show was better but I dont think I enjoyed it as much as last years show which didnt make me jump quite as much!
It was more " Child Friendly" I think is the word im looking for.
Im really looking forward to this years show and hope its the same date, it was my birthday :D

It's the same show as 2007 as well so if you're expecting something different you'll need to wait and see if he does a new one in 2009! Anyway, Happy Birthday in advance :D !

oracle

Postby pmheath » Mar 9th, '08, 21:13

I went to see Derren Brown on Friday night in Grimsby and my envelope was chosen for the Oracle act. I've been thinking about it since then and the only possible way he could have known what he knew was that he saw inside the envelope. Was anyone else chosen for the Oracle? Did they write their card leaning on the stage at the front? If so then I know how it was done.

I've got tickets to see this show at Reading in April and I can't wait! Awesome gift from my girlfriend for my birthday, not to mention the fact that the day after we did some filming on his new show! I sound like such a Derren Brown groupie... 8)

saw last night's show in Poole. I really enjoyed it! Though enjoyed the first half more than the second - i enjoyed the climax of the first half! (ooh...err...)

Great seats! Right in the centre, 2nd row! No problem seeing him - could even see the grey hairs :D

I did like the finale with the scroll...very clever method (yes im showing off that I know the method on purpose here ;))

Overall though - a very good night! :D

Love

Same here, the very end was brilliant and very clever, but I preferred the first half, especially the 'gorilla' bits. It was all very funny, though

And of course, at the stage door I was very fan-girly and if I had swooned over him any more the guys in white coats would've been called over. He was very friendly and sweet to everyone though, and even though he said he was in a rush he patiently spoke to everyone

Id just like to wish Derren well on his tour. I heard he had a very bad sore throat a few weeks ago.
I saw Derren last year and the year before...we waited for him for what seemed like ages!!! Infact when Derren came outside to greet us it was nearly my birthday!! :D

He's a very polite and charming guy, and I hope he's having lots of fun :wink:
