David Galle

David Galle (Menen, 2 December 1980) is a Belgian stand-up comedian who grew up in Wervik on the Belgian-French border. During his student period in 2000 he formed the absurdist-comic duo Winnock & Galle with Laurent Winnock. Between 2001 and 2005 they performed sporadically with the comedy collective De Jonge Wolven of the theatre agency Kaft and later also at 123comedyclub. In that period the duo also ceased to exist and Galle went solo.

In January 2009 he won, after eight episodes, the Comedy Casino Cup on Canvas. In 2010 his first full-length show D premiered. In 2013 his new show Overleven in de chaos premiered. In 2015 there was the new show En dan?. In 2018 'Erover' premiered, in 2019 'David Galle Komt', and in 2024 the new show 'Braka'.

In 2015 Galle played the role of Roste Thierry in the series Bevergem on Canvas. In this series Galle, together with fellow actors Gunter Lamoot and Luc Dufourmont, introduced the term "nurfen", a mysterious and unknown activity, which at the end of 2015 was temporarily the most googled word in Vlaanderen.
