Bert Gabriëls - 'Live from the Wetstraat'

In the comedy performance ‘Live from the Wetstraat’, Bert Gabriëls gives a unique look behind the scenes of our executive power. Bert has been working since 2021 as a lawyer at the Cabinet for Asylum and Migration, first under the wings of Sammy Mahdi and then Nicole de Moor. He follows from the front row how things really go behind the scenes of the political cabinets. ‘Live from the Wetstraat’ is a comedy show full of sharp jokes, absurd insights and impossible situations as only Bert can string them together, but this time in the wonderful setting of Belgian politics. What do politicians do when the cameras aren't rolling? How do you write a law? Can there be a joke in it? What happens if you give wrong advice? Where is that coffee machine? Who is really in charge? Why does it go wrong? You will find out all of it, in between the laughing. And just as it goes with series like Borgen of House of Cards, the truth is often even a bit tougher.
