Drôle(s) • Laura Laune : L'humour noir sans concessions

Funny(s) - Laura Laune: Uncompromising Dark Humor How do you turn intimate themes—control, domestic violence, and autism—into comedy? How can you laugh about them without pathos or taboos? In this episode of Funny(s): Anatomy of a Fall, Olivia and Caroline welcome Laura Laune, a comedian who plays with the contrast between a First Communion look and trashy jokes. With her unapologetic, 100% politically incorrect dark humor, she reminds us that humor gives us the freedom to create, to say anything, and to displease. With her, we explore: •⁠ ⁠A style born of discord: when angelic appearance meets dark humor. •⁠ ⁠The fragile balance of taboos: laughing at everything, yes, but without humiliating. •⁠ ⁠Intimacy at stake: laughing at your most sensitive personal experiences and turning them into stage material. •⁠ ⁠Recycled criticism: From haters to mugs, how to transform hatred into creativity. 🎙 In this episode (roughly in order) •⁠ ⁠Humor that comes naturally Laura Laune looks back on her beginnings and explains how her trashy style emerged without calculation. •⁠ ⁠Naivety and provocation How the gap between her character and her lyrics creates laughter that is both shocking and liberating. •⁠ ⁠Taboos and responsibility Why she rejects humor that humiliates, and how she juggles provocation and respect for the audience. •⁠ ⁠Laughing at the intimate How she manages to bring the most intimate aspects of her life to the stage. •⁠ ⁠Reactions and criticism Social media, insults, and trolls: when attacks become creative fodder. and a follow-up question: should we apologize when jokes hurt? 💡 What you'll take away (well, we hope so) •⁠ ⁠Dark humor can be liberating without losing sight of respect. •⁠ ⁠Laughter relies on trust between the comedian and their audience. •⁠ ⁠Taboos fall more easily when they're confronted with humor. •⁠ ⁠Even hatred can be turned into creativity. 🙏 Thank you A huge thank you to Laura Laune for her sincerity and boldness, and for reminding us that we can laugh at anything, but not just any old way.
