Drum roll... A door opens, a spotlight goes on and an actor comes on. A laughter tape starts. And there he is at last. With nothing more than a microphone, a stool and a glass of water, Elias begins his very first comedy night.

At least, that was the plan. But it starts with his appearance: Elias gets tangled up in an endless series of curtains and drapes before he has even reached the audience. And when he finally gets there, reality proves more unruly than the dream.

One night with Elias is an intimate solo performance that peels away layer by layer what it means to "be there. It's not comedy. It's not stand-up. But it looks so suspiciously like it might be.

Elias De Bruyne has previously made several performances that received critical acclaim; The performance with perhaps the longest attendance ever was nominated for the VSCD mime & performance award 2022, Euhm... in five acts was the choice of critic, Recently he worked and played in the performance We're all alone in this together by Kim Karssen, nominated for the VSCD mime & performance award 2025.
