Ausser Kontrolle

Who’s crazy here? That’s the question posed in Moresco’s new show. Uninhibited, provocative, and hilariously funny, “The Godmother of Comedy” rises above the current zeitgeist and grounds her stand-up routines—exaggerated to the point of absurdity—in socially critical and everyday topics. She tackles every development, no matter how abstruse—but also her own fallibility. Of course, La Familia is a must-have part of the show. Nothing and no one is spared, least of all herself.

“Out of Control” is an evening as wild as her hairstyle after three sleepless nights. Chaos meets comedy, madness meets truth—always in close collaboration with the audience. As if women should slow down as they get older, become calmer and more subdued, take up less space. No way! Moresco: “I’ll keep stepping on the gas until the wheels fly off the cart.”

For years, this Italian woman with a Swabian immigrant background has been shaking up the German-language comedy scene, winning over audiences with her irrepressible enthusiasm, sharp observations, and delightful authenticity. Stand-up comedy at its finest.
