Derren Brown comes to Stockton Globe with new show 'Only Human'

New dates have been added to the nationwide tour of Derren Brown’s brand-new stage show, Only Human, including a 5-day run at Stockton Globe. The hugely successful tour, which opened in April 2025 has been extended to take the live experience to a further 20 cities and towns in the UK and Ireland in 2026

The multi award-winning master of mind control and psychological illusion Derren Brown said:

 

"I’ve toured with different shows for 20 years and it’s such a joy. Only Human seems to be going down very well, and people are keeping the show secret for which I’m very grateful. I’m delighted the show is continuing into 2026 and it’s going to be a joy to take it into Ireland and places we couldn't get to this year. Try and come without knowing anything about it.”

 

Only Human is written by Derren BrownAndrew O’Connor and Stephen Long.

 

It is directed by Andrew O’Connor, with set design by Simon Higlett, video design by Simon Wainwright, lighting design by Charlie Morgan Jones and sound design by Beth Duke.  The age recommendation for the show is 12+.
