On June 12th at L'Amère à Boire, Saint-Gilles, two brilliant comedians take the stage for an evening of stand-up you won’t want to miss. Brussels Basement Laughs brings you a double-bill featuring two distinct comedic voices, each delivering a 30-minute set packed with punchlines, stories, and big laughs.
No gimmicks, no clash of egos - just two top-notch performers doing what they do best.
Meet the comedians:
Robin Weinburgh (US) – Robin is an American comic from Texas. He turned to stand-up in 2000, having previously focused on writing short slice-of-life essays for minor magazines and college literary journals.
Eight months later, he had his first paying gig. He’s performed with the likes of Patton Oswalt, Jim Gaffigan, Kevin Nealon, Mo Amer, and Emo Phillips. In 2001, he won Houston’s Funniest Person Contest. He continued until 2008, when he stopped to be a family man, at least until he moved to Belgium in 2022. Since then, he has performed in Belgium, France, and the Netherlands, and featured for Dima Watermelon, Tom Rhodes, and Matt Ruby.
The Austin Chronicle describes him “America’s Funniest Geek,” but he thinks The Austin American-Statesman described him best: "Come for the sci-fi jokes, but stay for the hilarious takes on an ever-expanding range of topics, including some very original blue material.”
Charlie Stevens (UK) – A Brussels-based Brit and founder of Side Splitters Comedy Club. Charlie’s been making audiences laugh from Malta to Paris with his sharp storytelling and painfully relatable tales of being British in the EU (it’s complicated).
Hosted by the amazing Alyce Sevink (NL).
A hat will be passed at the end of the show to support the show & comedians.
