Powerful!

With his talent as a mentalist combined with witty humor, Gili (aka Lieven Gheysen) created a genre of his own. The road to that started with a magic set when he was 12 years old. Once an adult, he made a name for himself by becoming a finalist of Humo’s Comedy Cup three times. His status as the only magician-comedian of Flanders was a fact. After a series of theater shows, Gili delved into mentalism from 2009. He uses his five senses so well that it seems as if he has a sixth sense with which he lovingly ridicules alleged psychics and clairvoyants. “Lend me your imagination tonight, and you will see that you are capable of things you didn't know you could do. That you too can penetrate the brain of another and go in search of his or her secret thoughts.” … That is what comedian-mentalist Gili asks you at the start of his 10th show ‘Machtig!’ (Powerful!). That he himself is capable of crawling into the head of his audience, we have known for a long time. More than ever, he now also wants to let the spectators shine as the stars of the show. To their own amazement, they will experience what it is like to have power over another. Add a lot of humor to that, and you get an authentic Giliale show again.
