Back in 2003, Alex Agnew was the first Belgian to win the prestigious 'Leids Cabaret Festival' in The Netherlands. He was the winner in both categories: Jury and public. Alex is a mixture of an English father, Belgian mother, an overdoses (action) movies, superheroes, comic books and a lot of music. No quiet, sophisticated humour, but proud to be loud! Rock'n'Roll comedy!
Alex Agnew: Ka-Boom!
In dit tweede solo-programma komt hij nóg harder, nóg scherper en nóg pikanter uit de hoek. Gevoelige toeschouwers weze bij deze gewaarschuwd: geen huisje - heilig of niet -blijft overeind, geen thema onbenut. "Morimos Solamente" bevat geen theatrale structuur (heeft dat ook niet nodig), maar kan je best omschrijven als anderhalf uur fantastisch verbaal geweld. "The World According To Alex Agnew" dus…
Alex Agnew: Morimos Solamente
Na de dvd's 'Kaboom!' en de snoeiharde bevestiging met 'Morimos Solamente' is Alex Agnew toe aan zijn derde stand-up-comedy-theaterregistratie DVD: 'More Human Than Human'.Agnew is uniek. Grover, gewaagder en vooral grappiger dan ooit. Geen enkel onderwerp is veilig. Lichtgeraakte mensen wezen gewaarschuwd: Alex Agnew balanceert altijd op het randje. Wie de Alex Agnew verwacht die geluidjes maakt, zal verrast zijn. Agnew speelt meer in op het publiek, brengt vaak meer doordachte humor en beperkt de human jukebox tot het minimum.Alex Agnew heeft één van de belangrijkste eigenschappen van een goede stand-up: charisma. Die sympathieke uitstraling in combinatie met zijn geniaal materiaal drijft het publiek keer op keer en in een razend snel tempo naar opeenvolgende lachsalvo's die pas stoppen als hij met een buiging het podium verlaat, wat gepaard gaat met een daverend applaus.
Alex Agnew: More Human Than Human
Anyone who thought Alex Agnew would enjoy a well-deserved rest after Larger than Life was wrong. From September 2011, Alex was once again gearing up to air his views on the world. The show premiered in February 2012. And it turned out to be a dark show, because Alex is extremely annoyed by the Big Brother feeling that surrounds us today. The government constantly deciding what is good or bad for us, the general public thinking they can make or break people, media watchers steering us in certain directions. About the distorted form of social control that, strangely enough, goes hand in hand with a form of apathy. We are no longer Generation X, but Generation Nothing. We have so little to do that other people's lives become our entertainment. That's why the title of this show is "Interesting Times." Named after the curse the Chinese utter on someone they wish ill upon: "May you live in interesting times."
Alex Agnew: Interesting Times
Alex Agnew talks about recent things bothering him and once again gives humor a whole new meaning by crossing the line as much as possible.
Alex Agnew: Unfinished Business
The gender debate, feminism, #metoo, nose picking, Tarzan, Quidditch… Curious what Alex Agnew has to say about these and many other topics? Be careful what you wish for!
Alex Agnew: Be Careful What You Wish For
For two years, Alex Agnew was forced to stay locked in his house and even more so in his own head. The virus that kept us all in lockdown has clearly left its mark. In his most recent show 'Wake Me Up When It's Over' he rails against everything and everyone, from share-steppers to the avocado-eating elite and rutting miniature poodles.
Alex Agnew: Wake Me Up When It's Over

De Slimste Mens: The Morning After
Do we still sing the praises of folly like Erasmus, or is it trendy again to be smart? And if so, who is the smartest? Who can talk about the medals won at the Olympic Games in London, but at the same time knows who Captain Haddock is? Who knows whether Lacan was a hair growth product or a psychoanalyst and can also program their own digital television? Who has déjà vu when leafing through the Encyclopedia Britannica and when reading the interviews with the new Miss Waregem Koerse? Who, oh who, is the smartest person in Flanders, Belgium, Europe, and by extension, the world? That is determined by a fierce battle between three fellow human beings. Every day, someone is eliminated, someone who may not be the smartest, but who is perhaps cherished in their family circle because of their many other talents. The others advance and are joined by a new challenger every day.
