Welcome Discomfort - Wim Helsen

A performance with a message. It goes like this: Pain is your friend. Boredom is your friend. Discomfort is your friend. Wim Helsen is your friend. That will be laughing! Bye now! Talk show host, theater maker, columnist, comedian: Wim Helsen simply cannot be put into a box. But whatever he does, it leaves no one untouched. He always knows how to touch at least one string in the audience, and usually an orchestra pit full of string instruments. That will be no different in this show. The press on ‘Welkom Ongemak’: “Wim Helsen does it again. De Vlaamse comedian shows himself once again an unsurpassed Ti Ta Tovenaar, the man who, without you realizing it, stops time in the theater. And takes you on a journey you don't see coming. [...] Being the ultimate jester, and yet moving: that is mastery.” (Ron Rijghard, NRC ★★★★★) “Wim Helsen knows how to turn it into a beautiful, witty and sensitive theater monologue. In doing so, he uses his entire toolbox as a theater maker: his quirky humor and his special facial expressions.” (Joris Henquet, De Volkskrant ★★★★) In collaboration with Memento Festival
