Ask Eli Comedy Show
Ask Eli — is a problem-solving comedy show. Eli and two other comedians answer the questions that concern the audience. The topics can be both sensitive and funny. The intention is to make a joke about it but also give a piece of advice that might even be useful!
If you have a problem, a sense of humor, and self-irony, please come to the show! Together we will make fun of your messy roommate, talkative coworker, or unbelievably narcissistic ex!
Remember, we’re not therapists! Also, not all therapists are therapists. If you are really struggling, please get the help of a professional specialist. Anyway! Eli is waiting for you and your stories.
The show is "Pay What You Want", so bring as many friends as you can; it is practically a free therapy session! Meanwhile, you can follow us on Instagram: @askelishow.

Saturday Night Laughs: Improv Comedy Double Bill
**[GRAB YOUR TICKETS ON OUR WEBSITE](www.barcelonaimprovgroup.com/shows)**
Saturday Night Laughs is high energy improv at its best - a double bill featuring two hilarious improv sets to get your weekend started right!

Each show features a new cast who are thrown together to explore truth in comedy, and all its possible interpretations.
In the second half, Helix embark on a freeform journey into the unknown. They unfold the spiralling connections between different worlds, some which appear and blink out in an instant and others which last until the end of time. The only thing connecting these twists and turns is a thin strand, spun from one single idea.

Open Clown Workshop (PWYW) in English • Every Other Sunday
Join us every other Sunday for the Open Clown Workshop at The Comedy Clubhouse Barcelona.
Whether you’re an experienced clown wanting to exercise your clowning muscles or a complete beginner full of curiosity this workshop is for you.
Sessions will usually focus on one particular aspect of clown for example: bafflement, befriending uncertainty, staying curious, freedom in failure, connecting with your pleasure, finding the game, eye contact with the audience.
Our usual workshop teachers are experienced clowns who perform regularly in Barcelona and around the world. They have either trained with the legendary clown master Philipe Gaulier; performed at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival; organised their own cabaret shows; or have experience of developing clown numbers elsewhere. While every teacher has different strengths and exercises they’ll share, each workshop is designed to inspire you and help develop your skills as a comedic performer.
This is a great place to meet new people, play games, have fun & learn new skills!
The session lasts from 15.00 until 17:30 and it operates as a Pay What You Want workshop (suggested donation between 5 and 15 euros).
It takes place at the Comedy Clubhouse on Via Laietana (be careful because there are two Comedy Clubhouses! It does not take place at the one on Carrer Canvis Nous!)

Columbus Comedy Improv Meetup at Gresso's!
Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you knew Del Close on a personal level, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games!
The idea behind improv is to create entire scenes from scratch based on a suggestion from the audience. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway*, *ComedySportz*, or *Wild 'n Out*; it could also be done to tell stories, like *Middleditch and Schwartz*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime!
Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!

April Book Club Meetup
Welcome, readers!
Our April read is **_Martyr!_ by Kaveh Akbar.**
The story follows a young Iranian American poet grappling with grief, addiction, and the aching question of what makes a life meaningful. Drawn into an unexpected friendship with a terminally ill artist, he begins to confront faith, love, and the seduction of self-destruction. Lyrical, darkly funny, and emotionally piercing, the novel wrestles with beauty and despair in equal measure. It’s a story about longing—to be seen, to be forgiven, and to matter.
Looking forward to discussing with everyone!
We will meet at Zaftig Brewing Co in their event room in the back. We are welcome to bring in our own food, but **drinks must be purchased at the bar.**
Happy reading! 📖
