Helene Bockhorst - Lebefrau

Helene Bockhorst's new show is an ode to life.

Dark humour meets colourful outfits and silliness as she tackles the uncomfortable questions: why is a man who enjoys life a bon vivant, while a woman doing the same is just a slut? Should you carry on family traditions no matter what, even when those traditions are depression and unhealthy coping patterns? What can I do for a better world - without going to too much trouble? And am I at least one of the more interesting cases for my therapist?

With her open and honest style, she takes the audience on an emotional rollercoaster where funny everyday observations sit alongside life-changing experiences. Running through it all is the question of how to hold on to lightness and hope even when times are hard.

A show about trauma, depression, resilience - and the fact that there is always a reason to laugh, even when life isn't going the way you'd like.
