Star of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Doug Segal's infusion of mindreading and comedy makes him a truly unique comedian. His act is regularly met with critical acclaim, leading Doug to be awarded the Best Cabaret Act at the Brighton Fringe Festival in 2012 and the Three Weeks Editors award at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2012. When booked for events, whether that be corporate parties or public comedy festivals, his flawless live mindreading act blows audiences away, leaving them unable to believe their eyes. An event featuring Doug is a surefire success, due to his unique set.
Though Doug started out channeling Derren Brown's more serious onstage presence, he found his groove by combining comedy with magic. Embodying a light hearted onstage persona with elements of stand up comedy, he has received five star reviews time and time again. Starting with his first show, I Know What You're Thinking, it was Doug's second show, How To Read Minds and Influence People, that won him two awards. In 2013, Doug's third show, I Can Make You a Mentalist, toured the UK and Switzerland, and marked a shift in Doug's style - while maintaining the same standard he is famed for.
No stranger to the screen Doug has appeared on British, Japanese and Dutch television, most notable, BBC One and BBC Three. He has been described by The Metro as “one of the funnier more entertaining mental illusionists” and as “the UK’s best kept entertainment secret” by TimeOut Magazine, a reflection of Doug's genre-leading success. From Latitude to The Quartz Arts Festival, The Hull Freedom Festival to your stage, Doug has commanded the stages of prestigious venues nationwide. Witty, talented and utterly magical, an event featuring Doug is unforgettable.
