Tatjana Meissner – Indiscret
Indiscret sind vierzehn Songs: frech und frivol, rotzig und sanft, tiefsinnig und witzig, mitreißend und melancholisch.
Indiscret heißt Tatjana Meissners erste Audio-CD.
Das ist neu.
Aber indiskret ist die Entertainerin schon immer... ein wenig. Die Kabarettistin legt den Finger in die Wunde; spricht aus, was jeder schon einmal gedacht hat und bringt ihr Publikum zum Lachen, indem sie mit viel Selbstironie Themen und Begebenheiten aufgreift, die jeder schon erlebt hat.
In ihren Liedern lästert die Entertainerin über menschliche Laster („Alte Mütter“ und „Kranke Männer“), plaudert von weiblichen Unzulänglichkeiten („Spann mal aus“) und männlichen Abgründen („Er redet nur“). Sie swingt über den „Sinn“ des Lebens, singt melancholisch „Ich werde wie Mama“, rockt den Mauerfall und reggaet die Kraft der Hormone. Die Meissner lässt nichts aus, nichtmal Schlager („Glückspilz“).

This event will bring together activists and comedians to discuss the ways in which comedy can push forward agendas such as #metoo and contemporary women’s rights movements, and how this effort can translate into meaningful change in women’s lives. The event will also showcase the work of UN Women and Mythos Labs in countering violent extremist recruitment narratives—and their understandings of gender—through comedy. It features a comedy set by renown comedian and actress Aparna Nancherla.
In early 2018, UN Women partnered with Mythos Labs to produce a series of comedy videos to counter the messaging of terrorist groups in the Asia region. Working with female comedians in South Asia and South-East Asia, these sketches challenge the narratives used by violent extremist groups and counter extremist ideology in the online space. While this work was originally piloted to prevent and counter violent extremism, the implications go far beyond this realm. Comedy can and is being used to promote broader themes of women’s empowerment and gender equality, by not just making us laugh, but by challenging stereotypes with a broad and engaged audience.
This project is part of UN Women’s Empowered Women, Peaceful Communities programme, which is funded by the Government of Japan. This programme works in the Asia Pacific region to challenge the gendered dynamics of violent extremism and reverse its growing trend, through prioritizing women’s rights, empowerment, participation and leadership—in national decision-making and at the community level.

COMEDY - "A-maze-ing Laughter"
Have you ever walked by someone laughing or smiling ? I find it to be contagious. My daughter, daughter-in-law and my lovelies (grandchildren) went downtown to English Bay to soak up the sun as it was another hot day here in Vancouver. We decided to go for some ice cream after playing at the beach . Crossing the street right at the corner of Denman and Davies is this tiny grassy square (Morton Park) and here are these 14 beautiful larger than life bronze statues. All in different comical poses and grinning from ear to ear. In no time , we were laughing and posing as we interacted with them. We then went for our ice-cream. Hmmm.... what a fun and delicious day!
