Details: From Aristophanes to Roberto Benigni, through William Shakespeare, Molière and Sacha Guitry, humour has manifested itself in artistic works from all eras. It is undoubtedly one of the artistic heritage of humanity. But today, humour is too often confined to the ghetto of comic business, which often does not contribute to tolerate and accept differences. But to accept the laughter of the other is already accepting difference. The Centre Culturel de Rencontre Abbaye de Neumünster (CCRN) took advantage of the momentum of 2007 to create a recursive cultural and artistic event, the Humour for Peace Festival with its 7th edition that takes place from 8 to 17 March 2013. This festival is dedicated to Walid Hassan, Iraqi comedian assassinated in 2006.

Award winning performer Jennifer Rawlings is not your typical mother of five. She is a comedienne who has been traveling to war zones for over a decade to entertain the troops, telling them jokes, of course. This ‘must see’ solo performance will take you on a roller coaster ride of emotion from the moment the show begins. Jennifer will lead you on an extraordinary journey of laughter and tears as she weaves together unforgettable stories about family, war and humanity.
