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.”
