Ella Carina Werner, born in 1979, grew up in Westphalia as the daughter of a belly dancer and a psychotherapist, and when she's on stage today, it's a unique mixture of the two. As a columnist and co-editor of "Titanic", she is one of the most accomplished and funniest satirists in Germany. In her acclaimed autobiographical stories, which "sound like Kafka after a good joint" (Spiegel Online), she tells of Asian sex tourists on the Reeperbahn, her love of disturbing night train rides, whisky tastings for women and the ideal funeral.
She is a member of the monthly reading stage "Dem Pöbel zur Freude" at the Centralkomitee in Hamburg, where she has lived for a long time. She reads solo from her stories and chats in between about everything from childhood and politics to the pros and cons of polyamory. And, on request, there will be one or two of her feminist animal poems ("The rooster constantly explains / to the hen how to lay eggs").

"You can't make a career without children. Stories from my life"
As the years go by, life becomes more and more wonderful, especially as a woman: no more school sports, hardly any more bad flirting and at some point, hallelujah, the end of the annoying bleeding in the form of the menopause. To shorten the waiting time until this celebration, satirist Ella Carina Werner crashes a whisky tasting, bickers with her uncle about women's soccer, dances intoxicated at three weddings and finally embarks on the most daring adventure of her life: a wellness weekend with her own mother.
In fast-paced stories, they talk, make out, drink, argue and think about the big questions in life - and Ella Carina Werner "comes out as a feminist of the highest comic caliber" (Hamburger Abendblatt).
