A comedy show with headliner Bianca Lala from Romania 🇷🇴 , featuring some of the funniest international acts in Luxembourg : Jerry,🇹🇷 Keli,🇦🇱 and hosted by Ken Park🇱🇺. **About the Artists:🎙️** **BIANCA LALA:** She does comedy because she’s Gen Z and believes in healing - but ironically. She’s also Romanian, which means she’s chasing her dreams, but like, with low expectations. She used to work in sales until she discovered her true passion: not making money. If you’ve ever cried on a Flixbus, called your mom just to fight, or tried to fix a guy whose whole personality was a Japanese tattoo and a really bad impression of Matthew McConaughey - congrats, you have something in common with her. She’s performed in 38 cities and 19 countries (one of which was Slovakia, so it doesn't count) and has had airport panic attacks in 5 of those. She currently has the most viewed set on Red Mic’s YouTube channel (“What Doesn’t Kill You Makes You Kinky”) - 239k views and counting. As the co-founder of Unhinged Theatre, she also works behind the scenes, writing scripts and crafting chaotic yet entertaining plotlines. **JERRY:** Jerry is a Turkish comic and one of Luxembourg’s rising stars, chronicling the chaos of singlehood in her thirties, where her relationship status refreshes every 24 to 48 hours. Her comedy dives into expat struggles, working life, and the absurdities of trying to settle down abroad. **KELi:** Raised in Greece, Albanian by birth, princess by choice, resides currently in Luxembourg after several failed attempts at staying in one country. His comedy is observational and story-led, built around social and cultural commentary and that complaining is his preferred way of understanding the world. An archivist/librarian, cat enthusiast and metalhead who enjoys his boring job and wants to bring attention to immigrant stories and everyday cultural absurdities. **MC** **KEN PARK:** Once a skater boy, now a domesticated husband and proud plant addict, Ken brings easygoing stories and sharp observations to the stage. He somehow finds a way to click with every crowd, no matter the clique. Always welcomed everywhere, he puts the 'in' in inclusive. **Where**: ROCAS, 33 Rue des Capucins, 1313 Ville-Haute, Luxembourg **When:** 7th of March I 8PM **Tickets:🎟️** https://www.eventbrite.com/e/balkan-baddie-and-friends-a-standup-comedy-show-tickets-1982567534866?aff=oddtdtcreator Come and enjoy some drinks before the show!

**Confidence in Bloom: How Creativity Builds Confidence** What happens when creativity becomes an intentional practice? In this month’s Confidence Lab, we’ll gather at **Petals That Inspire: The Flourish Studio** for an evening exploring the connection between creativity and confidence. How making with our hands, engaging our senses, and allowing space for expression can shift how we see ourselves and what we believe is possible. Our featured speaker, **Amanda Lorenzetti**, owner of Petals That Inspire, will share how creativity has shaped her own confidence journey and why creative environments play such a powerful role in well-being, resilience, and personal growth. Drawing from her work leading an experience-driven floral studio and a community-centered workforce development program, Amanda will reflect on creativity as both a personal and collective catalyst. Amanda will also guide us through a **hands-on floral design experience**, creating a fresh arrangement in a wide mouth mason jar. No prior floral experience is needed, just curiosity and a willingness to engage the process. This evening is an invitation to slow down, create, and reconnect with the part of yourself that grows through care, attention, and imagination. You’ll leave with a floral arrangement to take home, and a deeper understanding of how confidence can be cultivated through creative practices. **Featured Speaker: Amanda Lorenzetti** Amanda Lorenzetti is the owner and founder of [Petals That Inspire](https://www.petalsthatinspire.com/) and The Flourish Studio, a social enterprise florist based in Columbus, Ohio. She brings more than a decade of experience in wedding and event sales, paired with hands-on expertise in floral and event design. Amanda’s connection to the floral industry began early, spending time alongside her godmother, a professional florist on the East Coast. After earning her business degree, she returned to her hometown in Connecticut to work as a floral and event designer, blending creative artistry with strong operational and client-focused skills. In 2020, Amanda returned to the floral industry with a renewed purpose, driven by a desire to build a business rooted in creativity, community impact, and sustainability. During this pivotal time, she founded Petals That Inspire—an innovative floral concept that reimagines the traditional florist model by combining event florals, workshops, and experiential offerings with a mission-centered approach to workforce development. Today, Petals That Inspire is a thriving social enterprise known for its thoughtful design, educational experiences, and commitment to empowering young adults facing barriers to entry in the workforce. Amanda is deeply passionate about building businesses that are both profitable and purpose-driven, and she leverages her strong business acumen to create a scalable & sustainable model that inspires creativity while giving back to the community. **What is Confidence Lab?** Confidence Lab is a monthly community experience for bold, thoughtful leaders building confidence from the inside out. Whether you’re launching a business, leading a team, navigating change, or simply striving to show up more fully—you belong here. Our work demands clarity, courage, and conviction—but the pace of daily life can erode our sense of self. Confidence Lab creates space to reflect, reconnect, and grow with others doing purpose-driven work. It’s designed for entrepreneurs, nonprofit leaders, creatives, corporate professionals, activists, and anyone ready to lead with authenticity and impact. ***Please note:*** *All are welcome! If cost is a concern, please use promo code PUBLIC to access a free ticket—we want you to join us.*
