Bert Gabriëls brings ‘Live from the Wetstraat’: “Wouldn’t sustain policy work without a comedy show”

But how do you turn that into a humorous show? “Making comedy by criticizing everything is quite funny, but I don’t want to do that.”

“It is also about my colleagues. And I have been working there for 3 years. Not because I need it, but because I think it should be, that is the case with everyone and that is also the case for the State Secretary. And it is silly to start bashing people who are doing their best.”

“I tried to create a performance that is funny and strict enough, but not negative. I think that is also the task of every person to look at your life in that way. But that is often difficult because so much goes wrong.”
