"Leben!" mit Jane Mumford

As a child, the world still seemed magical to her, but as soon as she left elementary school, her world consisted only of tedious things like: wanting to be cool, having to belong, trying to keep up, finding the love of her life... And at some point something has to be achieved before you die! So much to do!! Out of sheer overwhelm, she spent her teenage years withdrawn as a tap-dancing gothic rocker and now wonders if she has ever completely grown out of this teenage state? Because all the self-doubt, world-weariness and "overthinking" still haunt her today... into the very, very dark shadows of the night.

Jane Mumford (*1988) is a cabaret artist, comedian, musician and animator. In her work, she likes to combine the sarcastic, rhythmic and absurd according to her preferences. She is known from TV formats such as Deville Late Night and the Comedy Talent Show, from radio formats such as The Satire Fraction or Slaps, or as a drummer in various rumble orchestras. For "Leben!" she was awarded the Swiss Comedy Award in the solo category.

"Dragging your own coffin onto the stage, presenting herself as an annoying goth teenager, explaining Gene Kelly in words and steps - only Jane Mumford does that. Funny, friendly British and unique as a solo performing author in this country." – Viktor Giacobbo
