It has now been over ten years since Gerburg Jahnke started inviting only female cabaret artists and comediennes to a "niche program" on WDR. At the time, nobody expected a very long shelf life, in line with the common prejudice: there are no good funny women! We no longer need to talk about that today. Jahnke's "Ladies Night" is now broadcast on ARD and holds its own elegantly and light-footedly alongside all the male cabaret: "We're not in competition either. We do our job - whether it's cabaret, comedy, songs, slapstick or poetry. We are funny, wicked, moralistic or absurd, we can sing or not, and most of the time we are beautiful! And it's all even better live on stage. We have time and we let ourselves go. Every evening is different, they are all wonderful. And now a lot of men also come to our ladies' shows. Voluntarily! It doesn't get any better than that."
