From Act Easy - Improvised Theatre in Public Spaces

**This is not your typical meetup.** This is vivid, a little challenging, sometimes awkward — and a lot of fun. This is for people who are curious enough to step slightly outside their comfort zone. We blend theatre with real life. Together, we improvise small scenes and playful interactions in public spaces — cafés, bars, and beyond. While we play, the public becomes the audience (without even noticing). **No acting experience needed.** **How it works** We start very simple and low-pressure. Easy exercises, getting comfortable, arriving as a group. Then, step by step, we move into more creative and playful situations in public. You can always choose your level of involvement. The idea is to warm up together first, then gradually explore more playful and slightly weird scenarios. **Important** Please only sign up if you actually plan to come. We keep the group small so every person matters. No matter how many people show up — we will do this. Group size Small group (around 6–12 people) Language English & German both welcome **Location** Herman Schulz – Berlin (Cash only – they don’t take cards) **The location may change, please check regularly**. hosted by dOminik ‐-----------‐----‐------- Das ist kein typisches Meetup. Wir verbinden Impro-Theater mit echtem Leben. Gemeinsam spielen wir kleine Szenen in öffentlichen Räumen – Cafés, Bars usw. Die Menschen um uns herum werden dabei (unbewusst) zum Publikum. **Keine Vorerfahrung nötig.** Wir starten sehr einfach und entspannt und steigern uns Schritt für Schritt. Zuerst Warm-up, dann kleine, spielerische Szenen draußen oder im Café. 👉 **Wichtig:** Bitte melde dich nur an, wenn du wirklich kommst. Die Gruppe ist klein und jede Person zählt. Egal wie viele wir sind – wir machen das. Sprache: Deutsch & Englisch Ort: Hermann Schulz – Berlin (Nur Barzahlung) **Die Location kann sich ändern. Schaut also regelmäßig nach.** hosted by dOminik

There are no requirements or expectations of any kind. Speaking is encouraged but not compulsory. All issues are legitimate and deserve attention. Everyone is entitled to share their experience, including yourself. Speak honestly and respectfully. Try not to downplay or invalid other people's feelings, or your own. Pay attention to physical and emotional boundaries. Avoid raising your voice, interrupting or talking over anyone else. Be aware of how much you’re participating so everyone gets a chance to speak.

Notify the facilitator if you feel distressed or upset, or if you find someone's behavior inappropriate. Feel free to step out if you need to. Last but not least, have respect for everyone’s religious / cultural / nationality / race / gender / sexual / diverse backgrounds. ☀️
