Battlestar Galactica

The Minority Report is a weekly stand-up comedy show about identity, culture, and the expat experience. Are you a minority in Europe? Did something weird, awkward, or low-key offensive happen to you this week? This is the space to vent your feelings about it. Every week, comedians Bryan Lee and Moe Singleton take the stage to unpack life as outsiders, offering their unique commentary on topics like race, masculinity, relationships, and life between cultures. Add weekly special guest comedians and “question time” with the audience, and you’ve got Berlin’s most unhinged comedy experience. 🎟️ Want to warm up before the show? Check out our comedy workshop – a beginner-friendly stand-up class with Bryan and Moe, hosted just before the show.

Join our Women’s Circle at "Das Kabbalah Centre" in Berlin, hosted by Rachel Wende. Language: English. This event is open for new and current students. Amount: EUR 05.00 - 15.00 Living a purpose-driven life is something we all strive for. Such a life promises that we are using our talents, sharing of ourselves, and working towards goals that are fulfilling and inspiring. Staying on the path requires daily effort and yet, with all the responsibilities that we have as women, sometimes that purpose-driven life seems like a worthy goal for sometime after we’ve fulfilled the needs of our partners, children, and jobs. Join us for an intimate women’s circle as we share insights and tools for how to revitalize our search for our purpose. Learn how to get out of patterns and routines that keep us from making the changes we deeply desire. Our path to fulfillment lies within each of us; we only need to tease it out. The Kabbalah Centre Berlin Hauptstraße 27 Entrance E / 1 Floor 10827 Berlin

**[TICKETS FOR SALE ON EVENTBRITE](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/finishing-tracks-with-biesmans-tickets-1986358765539)** Most producers don't have an unfinished track problem. They have a too-much-going-on problem. Too many elements, too many layers, too many decisions left unmade. The track loses its identity somewhere in the process. This workshop is about finding it again. **Biesmans** — Berlin-based producer and DJ with nearly 30 years in the house and techno scene — opens up his actual working process in real time. No slides, no theory, no tutorial. Just a real track getting meaningfully better in front of the room. **How it works:** Participants submit an unfinished track in advance. Biesmans selects one, preps it, and works on it live during the session — talking through every decision as he makes it. The rest of the time is open Q&A where participants can bring their own questions and challenges. **Format:** * Duration: 3 hours * Participants submit one track + one question before the workshop * Live session: 90–120 minutes * Open Q&A: 60 minutes * Wrap + next steps: 15 minutes

Join us on Wednesdays at 19:00 for **The Greatest Story**, a Bible study series that explores the big story of Scripture, tracing God’s promises to Israel and their fulfillment in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, while helping participants connect that story with their own lives.

Come along, grab a coffee, shut up, and write! We will do two 45-minute writing sessions, with a 15-minute break in between. The first session starts at 18:45pm. We’re meeting at the bar of the Motel One. You’ll find us on the second floor at the big table by the window. For space reasons, we are limited to a certain number of attendees, so please update your RSVP if you can't come. If you are new, come and say hello, as we know that suddenly going quiet for 45 minutes and staring at that blank page can be intimidating when it's your first time. We have a lot of long-term regulars who will be happy to help you feel welcome. In between sessions, we have a Telegram chat: https://t.me/joinchat/ERW3pxD5kfELGeWs9SUhjw For more information, visit [https://shutupwrite.com](https://shutupwrite.com/).

"The SOB is a ballet dancer. He’s the best ballet dancer that ever lived, and if I get a good chance I’ll kill him with my bare hands." - W.C. Fields In *City Lights*, Chaplin's Little Tramp meets a blind girl selling flowers who mistakes him for a wealthy man. When he learns that an operation may restore her sight, he sets off to earn the money she needs to have the surgery. He also befriends an alcoholic millionaire who only recognizes him when he is drunk. When the blind girl and her grandmother fall behind in the rent and face eviction, he tries working and even enters a boxing competition to raise the money they need. Regarded as Chaplin's masterpiece, *City Lights* has been ranked on more than seventeen "100 greatest movies of all time" lists. Orson Welles cited it as his favorite picture. *City Lights* is available for streaming on Amazon Prime, Hulu, HBOMax, Tubi and PlutoTV. The Columbus Library lists three copies on blu-ray and eight copies on DVD. Watch the movie on your own, then join us upstairs at East Market to discuss the film.
