The show is described as follows in a press release: "Be part of the startling world of mind-reading, suggestion, and psychological illusion at the hands of U.K. phenomenon Derren Brown. This spellbinding theatrical experience challenges us — in the most jaw-dropping way — to take a closer look at the stories and beliefs that guide our lives."
