Description
HELENE BOCKHORST | LEBEFRAU Comedy & Tragedy Helene Bockhorst's new program is an ode to life. Black humor meets colorful outfits and silliness as she confronts uncomfortable questions: Why is a man who enjoys himself a bon vivant, while a woman is simply a slut? Should family traditions be continued at all costs, even if they involve depression and unhealthy coping patterns? What can I do for a better world - without making too much of a fuss? And am I at least one of the more interesting cases for my therapist? In her open and honest manner, she takes the audience on an emotional rollercoaster, where humorous everyday observations are just as present as life-changing experiences. Between the lines, it’s about how to maintain lightness and hope even in difficult times. A program about trauma, depression, resilience - and about always finding a reason to laugh, even when life doesn’t go as planned.

Helene Bockhorst (*1987) is comedian and author. In January 2018, she won the Hamburg Comedy Cup - as the first (and so far only) woman in the history of the competition. This was followed by numerous TV appearances, e.g., at Happy Hour, Pussy Terror TV, Quatsch Comedy Club, Mario Barth & Friends, Midnight Peaks, Genial daneben, Olafs Klub, Nuhr im Ersten, and ZDF Comedy Summer. Her first three solo programs - “The Fabulous World of Therapy,” “The Confessions of the Impostor Helene Bockhorst,” and “TAKE ME seriously” - were successfully performed in small art theaters across the German-speaking region and were partly recorded for TV. In 2022, she received the Baden-Württemberg Small Arts Award. “LEBEFRAU” is her fourth full-length solo program. Photo: Thommy Mardo
