Comedians born in Lausanne
Vaud, Switzerland ๐จ๐ญ
Lausanne rises steeply above the northern shore of Lake Geneva as the capital of the canton of Vaud, a French-speaking city of terraces, staircases and a fine Gothic cathedral.
It is home to the headquarters of the International Olympic Committee and holds the title of Olympic Capital, and its university keeps the city youthful. That cultural vibrancy supports live performance, and as Switzerland's comedy scene grows, the city's theatres welcome French-language stand-up and touring acts. Lausanne is also the birthplace of comedian Charlotte Gabris.
