All About Katerina

Katerina Vrana is one of Greece‘s top stand-up comedians, performing stand-up in both Greek and English all over the world.
Her shows Feta With The Queen  and About Sex have sold out in both Greek and English in Athens and London and at the Edinburgh Fringe and Melbourne International Comedy Festivals.
CNN included her in its list of “Female Comedians To Watch“ and in 2016 she came third in the Laugh Factory’s international competition “Funniest Person in the World“.

In April 2017, while on tour in Malaysia, Katerina fell seriously ill and nearly died.
Her survival came at the cost of multiple physical impairments that affected her movement, eyesight and speech and she now moves around mainly in a wheelchair. 
She was able to get back on stage full-time in 2019 with her show “Staying Alive (I nearly died, you know)”, which was an unprecedented success as it sold out its entire run in Athens before it even opened.
The show has been selling out in Greece consistently ever since and in English it sold out all 14 shows of its 2023 European tour.

Since 2023, Katerina has been performing her new show Derbederissa in Greece, once again in sold out venues. It is her only show that is performed exclusively in Greek.

Vrana has also done three TEDx talks and has presented the Greek Film Academy Awards twice, the second time after she became disabled.

Katerina spends most of her time between performing and rehabilitation, as she has difficulties with her balance, movement, eyesight, and speech.
Her hair remains unaffected.
