Battlestar Galactica

The Language Café is primarily aimed at people who are struggling with their mental health which can make it hard to go to regular courses. We want to create a safe space for everyone to learn and practise without pressure. Everyone is welcome! Please try to be on time so we can all get started together :) We mainly practise on a beginner/lower intermediate level and adapt to everyone's prior level of German. The Language Café will focus on teaching you the most important words and phrases and basic grammar in German. The content of the course is adapted to real life. (everyday life in Germany, dealing with authorities, etc.) We will cover different topics every week and you can join us anytime, since the topics do not necessarily build on each other. The Sprachcafé is for free. \*If you cannot make it please cancel your participation so someone else from the waiting list can join, thank you!\* \| \| \| \|

A regular meeting to read and discuss work writers' are currently engaged in. For screenwriters' serious about their writing and wanting the support and incentive a periodic group meeting can provide. The meeting will be at Alexanderplatz (contact Marc, the organizer, beforehand for exactly where). We'll make introductions about ourselves, our experiences and what we want out of the group. If you're comfortable in doing so, come prepared with a something you're working on that you want to read or discuss. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "The author is grateful to her weekly writers' group for kindness and criticism during the writing of this book." *from the Acknowledgments from the book "The Joy Luck Club" by Amy Tan*

**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

Come along, grab a coffee, shut up, and write! We will do at least two sessions of each 45 minutes of writing and two breaks. We will start the first writing session at 10:45. For space reasons we only allow a limited number of attendees, so please update your RSVP if you can't come. We'll probably be grouped around the large table in the back room's center. In the summer, also outside. Looking forward to seeing you there!

We will start the first writing session at 11:15. **For space reasons, we are limited to a certain number of attendees, so please update your RSVP if you can't come**. We often have a large waiting list, and not updating your RSVP or not showing up if you do RSVP yes means that others miss out. We also ask that if you do change your RSVP, do it with reasonable notice. Thanks! We typically take over all of the cafe, but try to share tables if you can to allow space for other customers.

Join us as we get together to see Paul Rudd in the latest comedy-drama-musical from John Carney, POWER BALLAD! The film follows a washed-up wedding singer, a fading boy band singer and a stolen hit song. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Rick, a washed-up wedding singer, and Danny, a fading boy band star, bond over music and a late-night jam session. When Danny turns Rick's song into a hit, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves. Power Ballad is written/directed by John Carney, the master of the modern musical and creative mind behind Once, Begin Again and Sing Street! It stars Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Peter McDonald, Marcella Plunkett, Havana Rose Liu and Jack Reynor. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews at this year’s Dublin International Film Festival where critics call it “a sure-fired crowd-pleaser” that “just might be the feel-good hit of the year!” Others say, “Paul Rudd delivers a career-best performance in this charmer” that’s both “hilarious and deeply moving." The film continues John Carney’s “long run of success with yet another charmer” and “a sharp, hopeful crowd-pleaser that strikes the right notes!” SUMMER OF ICE CREAM, VOL 2: SHAKE NO. 8!
