Timeline

1976

Keith Patrick Barry (born 2 October 1976) is an Irish mentalist, hypnotist, magician and activist for the elderly.

Born in Williamstown, Waterford, Ireland, Keith's interest in magic began at the age of 5 with a Paul Daniel's magic set.

He started performing semi-professionally at the age of 15, inspired by the tricks he learned from a book entitled Magic for the complete Klutz.

1998

Keith graduated from NUI Galway in 1998 with an honours chemistry degree, but left his science career behind in the year 2000 to pursue a career in entertainment and motivational speaking.

2003

Barry's television career began with a series entitled Close Encounters with Keith Barry, which ran from 2003–2005.

The show originally aired in Europe and has since aired in 28 countries worldwide.

2004

In 2004, Barry starred in his own MTV television special entitled Brainwashed.

Barry's TED talk is in the top 20 most viewed TED Talks of all time and follows from his first ever live stage performance which was at TED in Monterey, California in 2004.

2005

2005 ended with his TV show Keith Barry Live With Friends which featured various celebrities such as magician Billy McComb, Jim Corr of The Corrs, and The Conway Sisters.

Barry's success throughout Europe coupled with his MTV special led to a four-year multi-special deal with CBS.

He returned to TED in 2005 and was the special guest performer then on the opening night.

2006

His first special with CBS debuted on 12 May 2006 and was entitled Keith Barry: Extraordinary.

The special later aired on New Year's Eve 2006 on The CW and on New Year's Day 2007 on TV3 in New Zealand and the Arena channel in Australia.

2007

Following a successful Irish tour along with a week in Dublin's Vicar Street, Barry and his longtime manager Eamonn Maguire were badly injured in a car crash on the Belfast to Newry road on 1 March 2007.

Barry suffered severe trauma to his left leg but astonishingly returned to the stage later the same year at Vicar Street.

On 29 December 2007, Barry performed in a live Saturday night prime-time special on ITV in the UK titled Keith Barry - The Escape Live.

The finale of the show featured an escape from a shed rigged with explosives.

Barry was tied to a chair with thick ropes by two members of the audience.

One of these was Glen Gathard, noted for hoping that Keith Barry would not make it out of the explosion.

Participants lit a fuse, started a two-minute countdown, and carried the chair into the shed.

Workmen hammered additional wood to cover the door and windows from the outside, then left the scene when one minute remained on the countdown.

After the countdown was complete, the shed exploded, then the camera changed to reveal Keith safely on top of a gantry some distance away.

Barry has performed live on The Ellen DeGeneres Show seven times and The Paul O'Grady Show four times.

On 13 July 2011, his "Keith Barry - 8 Deadly Sins" show opened to critical acclaim and a standing ovation at the Olympia Theatre in Dublin and ran for 5 weeks, setting new box office records during the run.

2012

(Wayne declined.)

2013
