Sinds 2020 brengt de Faculteit Sociale Wetenschappen van de UA vier keer per jaar een gratis Lunch Talk, in samenwerking met 'Nuff Said. Tijdens de Lunch Talks staat een artiest uit de comedy-, literaire of muziekscene centraal. Met een focus op het persoonlijke en professionele verhaal van de gast, en hoe dat verhaal zich verhoudt tegen de achtergrond van actuele sociale thema's en events zoals migratie, polarisatie en (internationale) conflicten. Gegarandeerd inspirerend!

Nabil Abdulrashid (VK)

Voor de Mad Goat-Lunch Talk zakt de Britse comedian Nabil Abdulrashid naar Antwerpen af. Zijn unieke comedy leverde hem al een rist awards en lovende kritieken op. Hij speelde al in alle top comedyshows in het VK, zoals Live at the Apollo, QI, Have I Got News For You, The Last Leg, Would I Lie To You?, 8 out of 10 Cats Does Countdown en véél meer. Nabil heeft een indrukwekkend parcours afgelegd sinds hij voor 't eerst kwam piepen als finalist in Britain's Got Talent 2020.

In de pers

“Sardonic intelligence and sharp eye for the absurdities of racial discourse...one of comedy’s most honest chroniclers of life’s complexities and contradictions,” The Guardian.

“A potent, mischievously entertaining voice," The Scotsman.

“A likeable raconteur with a unique perspective," The List.

During these Lunch Talks, an artist from the world of comedy, literature or music is central. The focus is on the personal and professional story of the guest, and how it takes place against a background of important social themes and events such as migration, polarization and (international) conflicts. Come along and be inspired by our unconventional guest speakers.
