Notes From a Fellow Traveller

Derren Brown's first book for magicians in 20 years. 520 pages on performance theory, the process of creating his theatrical shows, and on-stage technique. This is the 2nd printing of this book. We have a limited number available. This touring journal, written by one of the most successful West End performers alive, came into being while Derren performed his sell-out tour of Showman around the UK in 2022/3. It is written for magicians and mentalists looking to put on a show, and looks in detail at show-writing and performance, as well as questions of material, character, script, spectator handling and more. Mentalism, meaning and thirty years of mistakes.  DERREN BROWN:NOTES FROM AFELLOW TRAVELLER “This may be the most important book about performing magic ever written. I cannot think of another book where a star and veteran performer has so openly explained the deepest secrets of how they have created and developed their material. It’s essential and amazing.” — Andy Nyma
