Lighthearted, dry, sharp, or black? More and more boundaries are being set for comedy, with self-censorship and so-called “cancel culture” causing many heated debates around the world. At the same time, online comedy has become a globalised phenomenon, making stand-up and satire something which can cross borders and be opened up for new audiences. Transborder Café invites comedians and those including humour within their work and everyday life to discuss and reflect on the border-crossing role of humour and comedy today.

– Vladimir Bukharov (Moscow), stand-up comedian and Moscow’s stand-up movement apostle, author of the “Bukharog live”
– Nikolai Parshin (Murmansk), actor and author of several teams of the Top KVN league

Moderators:
