TOURDATA
Schlossgasse, 4780 Schärding
With sharp wit, irony, and precise sarcasm, she holds a mirror up to our society – igniting a fireworks display of facts, humor, and feminist clarity. Barbara Blaha knows what she’s talking about: Growing up as a child of a working-class family with many siblings but little money, she understands the feeling of being overlooked. It is precisely these experiences that make her perspective so authentic, relatable, and relevant. Her previous stage programs have been an overwhelming success – thousands of visitors, completely sold-out performances, standing ovations.
In "Funkenschwestern" (Sister Sparks), Blaha weaves personal experiences with numbers, studies, and socio-political contexts. In a clever, easily understandable, and wonderfully entertaining way, she shows why economic questions are always feminist questions:
Why women are less often allowed to lead.
Why they are interrupted more frequently and paid less.
Why industries with a high percentage of women earn less.
And why even a full-time job does not protect many women from the second unpaid shift at home.
Blaha makes visible what often remains invisible in everyday life – and manages to inspire rather than lecture. She shakes things up, encourages reflection, and simultaneously makes the audience laugh. An evening that inspires, empowers, and shows how much potential lies in an equal future.
"Funkenschwestern" is a program for anyone who wants to learn more about societal contexts, wants to make a change – or simply wants to experience an evening that is intelligent, humorous, and profound.
An evening for feminists, not-yet-feminists, skeptics, encouragers, and anyone who is eager for new perspectives.
Barbara Blaha is Austria's most prominent political influencer. She leads the Momentum Institute and shapes the societal debate on power and gender. With her feminist stage program, she captivates thousands.
