Reena Krishnaraja

Description

Turmeric – different, eastern, underestimated and persistent – Just like me! Welcome to my first solo! My name is Reena, I am a native of Appenzell Ausserrhoden with Tamil roots. At 21 years old (phew, I am old), I shuttle between Grub, Zurich, and Bern. Better said, between social life, lecture hall, and open mics. And when I have some time left, I patiently spell my name. Not only the pre-programmed culture crash preoccupies me. Life as a country girl, growing up, contrasts, and setbacks are also part of my struggles and thus on stage! Reena Krishnaraja - Winner of SRF3 Best Talent Comedy 2022 Cheeky, young, charming, and maybe a little naive. Reena Krishnaraja already won the SRF Best Talent Comedy Award 2022 at the tender age of 19. The native of Ausserrhoden with Tamil roots tells on stage how this combination manages to get through everyday life. The comedian grew up in the village of Grub AR (best village). Reena got into stand-up comedy by accident. To compensate for her math grade at the cantonal school, she wrote a 100-minute program as her Matura project (I got a 6). Afterwards, Reena attended her first open mics and gradually was asked for shows. Meanwhile, Reena studies social sciences in Bern during the day and performs on stages across the German-speaking part of Switzerland in the evenings. With captivating stories and insights, she inspires the audience and often makes them look old (I want to be so young).
