Keyboardist

**Zwischen den Jahren liegt dieser ganz eigene Zauber: ein Moment, in dem alles möglich scheint – das Alte klingt noch nach, das Neue klopft schon leise an.** Genau darum geht’s an diesem Abend – kurz durchatmen, lachen, Geschichten teilen und mit einem guten Gefühl Richtung 2026 starten. Mit lockeren Gesprächsrunden, Mini-Ideen und kleinen Momenten, die Spaß machen – von spontanen Throwbacks bis zu einem Augenzwinkern Richtung Neues Jahr. Statt Bleigießen oder Böller: Begegnungen, Gespräche und kleine Impulse, die zum Lächeln, Nachdenken oder einfach Weiterreden anregen. Vielleicht teilst du eine Erinnerung, schreibst einen Wunsch auf – oder entdeckst bei jemand anderem etwas, das hängenbleibt. Ein paar kleine Jahresend-Inspirationen begleiten uns – offen, unkompliziert und ohne Kitsch. Ein Abend, der Lust macht auf Neues – und Menschen, die vielleicht bleiben. **Das erwartet dich an diesem Abend:** * **Rotierende Mini-Runden** – klar strukturiert, locker moderiert * **Karten, Impulse und kleine Aktionen**, die Gespräche leicht ins Rollen bringen * **Eine Atmosphäre zwischen Rückblick und Aufbruch** – offen, herzlich, ohne Erwartungen * **Pre-Silvester ohne Druck:** Lockere Impulse statt strenger Rituale – mit Platz für Spontanes. **Im Ticket ist ein 15 Euro Konsumations-Gutschein enthalten.** Das bedeutet, ihr bekommt eine Pre-Paid-Karte, mit der ihr aus der Variation der Getränke und des Essens der Stände auswählen könnt. Falls euch ein Restwert auf der Karte übrig bleibt, könnt ihr den auch an einem anderen Tag im Gleis//Garten nutzen. ### Über uns Wir sind spezialisiert auf Dating Events, die Verbindungen in entspannter Atmosphäre ermöglichen.

***There’s a special kind of magic hidden between the years: a moment when everything feels possible – the old still echoes, while the new is already knocking softly*.** That’s exactly what this evening is about – taking a breath, laughing, sharing stories, and heading toward 2026 with a good feeling. With relaxed conversation rounds, mini-ideas, and small moments that spark joy – from spontaneous throwbacks to little winks toward the New Year. Instead of lead-pouring or fireworks: encounters, conversations, and gentle impulses that make you smile, reflect, or simply keep talking. Maybe you’ll share a memory, write down a wish – or notice something in someone else that stays with you. A few small year-end inspirations will guide us – open, easygoing, and free of kitsch. An evening that invites new beginnings – and maybe introduces you to people who stay. **What to expect this evening:** * **Rotating mini-rounds** – clearly structured, lightly moderated * **Cards, prompts, and small actions** that help conversations flow easily * **An atmosphere between reflection and fresh beginnings** – open, warm, without expectations * **A pre-New Year’s vibe without pressure:** gentle impulses instead of strict rituals – with room for spontaneity **The ticket includes a € 15 drink/food voucher.** Which means you can choose with your pre-paid card between a variety of drinks and food from the stands. If there is a rest value, you can also use it on another day at the Gleis//Garten. ### Über uns Wir sind spezialisiert auf Dating Events, die Verbindungen in entspannter Atmosphäre ermöglichen.

## [BOOK HERE!!!](https://www.universe.com/events/english-stand-up-comedy-show-monday-night-laughs-the-comedy-pub-tickets-0NML7Q?ref=MeetUp) Monday Night Laughs: Vienna’s English stand-up open mic! Watch & perform every Monday at The Comedy Pub. Free entry, cozy vibe, endless laug Vienna’s English Stand-Up Comedy Open Mic – Every Monday at The Comedy Pub ## 😂 Mondays Don’t Have to Suck The weekend might be over — but the laughter doesn’t stop. Welcome to **Monday Night Laughs**, Vienna’s cozy and community-driven **English stand-up comedy open mic**, where locals, expats, and travelers come together to kick off the week with big laughs and good vibes. Every Monday night, *The Comedy Pub Vienna* turns into a creative playground for comedians and comedy lovers alike. Whether it’s your first time at a show or your tenth, you’ll feel right at home. Forget Netflix. Forget the Monday blues. This is your weekly reminder that laughter fixes everything — especially on a Monday. ## 🎭 What Is *Monday Night Laughs*? It’s not a fancy showcase or a big-ticket headliner night. It’s something much better — it’s *real*. Here, the mic is open, the drinks are cold, and the laughter is honest. You’ll see comedians from all over the world — from total beginners testing their first five minutes to experienced performers working out new jokes for their next tour. No two shows are ever the same. One moment you’ll hear a joke about Austrian bureaucracy, the next about dating disasters in Spain or cultural shocks in Tokyo. It’s raw, spontaneous, and absolutely unpredictable — the way live comedy is meant to be. And because it’s all happening in English, the night draws a wonderfully mixed crowd: locals, internationals, and everyone in between. ## 🎙️ For Performers If you’ve ever thought, *“I could do that,”* this is your sign. *Monday Night Laughs* is one of Vienna’s most supportive and encouraging open mics for new comedians. No judgment, no pressure — just a room full of people who love to laugh and want you to succeed. It’s the perfect place to try stand-up for the first time, or to test new material before your next big show. The vibe is friendly, relaxed, and full of creative energy — comedy at its purest form. Sign-up is open before the show — come early, grab a drink, and put your name down. Who knows? You might be the next crowd favorite. ## 🎤 For the Audience If you just want to watch, you’re in for a treat. This is one of Vienna’s most authentic live experiences — a place where you can laugh, relax, and see the future stars of stand-up before they blow up. You’ll witness comedy in its rawest form: jokes being born, ideas taking shape, and performers finding their voice. Sometimes it’s perfect, sometimes it’s weird — but it’s *always* fun. Grab a beer, find a seat, and enjoy a night full of unpredictable laughter. ## 🍻 The Atmosphere The Comedy Pub isn’t just a venue — it’s a community. It’s the heart of Vienna’s growing stand-up scene, a space where people come together to connect, perform, and laugh without judgment. The audience cheers each performer, the comedians support one another, and the whole night feels like hanging out with friends who happen to be hilarious. It’s the kind of Monday night you’ll want to make a tradition. ## 📍 The Venue: The Comedy Pub Vienna 📍 **Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Vienna** Nestled in the heart of Vienna’s 5th district, *The Comedy Pub* is the city’s only dedicated stand-up comedy club — a cozy Irish-style bar with warm lighting, a friendly crowd, and the perfect stage for laughter. 🍻 A full bar with great drinks 🎭 Intimate setting with front-row energy 🌍 A melting pot of locals, expats & travelers 🪑 First come, first seated – so come early! ## 📅 Event Details 📆 **Every Monday** 🚪 **Doors open:** 19:30 🎤 **Show starts:** 20:00 📍 **The Comedy Pub**, Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Vienna 🗣️ **Language:** English 💶 **Entry:** Free entry – donations welcome (if you laugh, you pay in karma… or cash 😉) ## ✨ Why You’ll Love It Because this is what real comedy feels like. No lights, no filters, no fake laughs — just honest jokes, good people, and that unbeatable live energy that you can’t stream. **Monday Night Laughs** is more than a show — it’s a community, a creative space, and the friendliest way to start your week in Vienna. So come for the comedy, stay for the connections, and leave with sore cheeks from laughing. Monday Night Laughs: Vienna’s English stand-up open mic! Watch & perform every Monday at The Comedy Pub. Free entry, cozy vibe, endless laughs. #MondayNightLaughs #ComedyVienna #OpenMicVienna #StandUpVienna #EnglishComedyVienna #TheComedyPub #ViennaEvents #ViennaLaughs #FreeComedyVienna #ViennaNightlife #ComedyClubVienna #ExpatsInVienna #FunnyVienna #ViennaThingsToDo #LiveComedyVienna #InternationalComedy #ViennaLOL #MondayComedyVienna

We will meet in a calm and friendly place ( Parc, Café, Restaurant) to explore together some of Jiddu Krishnamurti’s key questions about awareness, relationship, and freedom. There will be no teaching, no authority — only open dialogue and attentive listening. Everyone is welcome, whether you are familiar with Krishnamurti or simply curious about life and self-understanding. We’ll start with an open conversation around a theme such as “Listening without judgment” or “Can thought bring clarity?” Please bring openness, curiosity, and a readiness to listen — no books or notes needed. The spirit is not to discuss “what should be,” but to observe together “what is.”

Introducing: Our Improv Choir After the beautiful workshop with Julia Füsselberger and Eric Ziegelbauer on Musical Improv, the idea was born to create a venue to learn and practice singing and to use these skills in improv. So here we have it: the IICVIC (we're still taking ideas for names...Roman numerals? 98 5 99? That would be the postal code for Olympia, WA.... Other ideas? Send me a message!) Come and learn how to use your voice and practice and train your instrument. Then apply your good work in some fun with circle songs and improvised singing. Every other Thursday at Die Schenke, Piaristengasse 33, 1080 Vienna. Please be prepared to give a donation of 7 Euros for the rent of the room.

Our January program is privileged to have Kristen Tregar as our speaker. Ms. Tregar is the co-author with John de Lancie (the actor who portrayed the character Q on Star Trek next generation) of a radio play depicting the events surrounding the Kitzmiller v. Dover Area School District trial. The trial decided the issue of some of the Dover school district board members attempting to insert creationism disguised as "intelligent design" into the 9th grade biology curriculum. She will discuss the trial and the process of writing the play. (Bob Leonhard has seen the play and it is riveting and tense). Ms. Tregar's bio is below: Kristen Tregar is a dramaturg, director, playwright, and theatre teacher. She earned her Ph.D. in Drama and Theatre from the UC San Diego and UC Irvine joint program. In addition, she has a MS in Forensic Science from City University of New York- John Jay College of Criminal Justice and a MA in Educational Theatre from New York University- Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development. In 2013, in collaboration with Irish colleagues, she founded *The Ireland Project*, an intercontinental devised theatre work with high school students in New York and Tallaght, Ireland. Her original short story "Far From Here" was recently published in *Stay Awhile Longer: More Scenes From Temecula Valley*. She has two rescued dogs (Kira and Harry) and she rides, competes, and foxhunts with her horses, Andromache and Baker Street Irregular. Food and drinks will be provided at the event.

**Caller: Gaye Fifer** **Band: Hot Coffee Breakdown** **Big Scioty Contra Dance** **temporarily returning to our long ago location for Jan-March - First Congregational Church, 444 E. Broad St., Columbus 43215** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/) Please bring your own refillable water bottle. Snacks to share are always welcome!
