**Anna revels in sacrilege and shameless self-determination in her 4th stand-up solo hour, The Devil in Miss Beros, an homage to the Golden Age of Porn’s, ‘The Devil in Miss Jones’.** Previewing Tuesday June 2nd as a work in progress, before premiering at Volksbühne Grüner Salon June 12th and at the Edinburgh Fringe August 2026. **“This was such a fun show and I genuinely couldn’t stop laughing!** It was so dark, a little twisted, and so wrong in all the right places! Viciously relatable and finally saying all the 18+ thoughts out loud that you’re ashamed of finding funny! 10/10, no notes, go watch!” – Sarah, audience review ‘High Hoe’ Edinburgh Fringe 2025 At 39, Anna appeals to all ages who love a naughty laugh. Bouncing with energy, she brings audiences together with warming crowd work and shameless authenticity. This show is ideal for dates looking for lively conversation topics, hungry singles, tourists who are apologetic about gentrification, families with unresolved tensions, the perverted, silver foxes with knowing smiles and connoisseurs of comedy. **About Anna** Kiwi born, Melbourne raised and Berlin saved, Anna is a headliner in major European cities, she opened for Jeff Arcuri at Admiralspalast twice in Berlin 2025 and has written for Comedy Central DE. Full-time indie stand-up since 2022, her solos ‘Creampie Curious’, ‘Creampie Clarity’ and ‘High Hoe’ had successful runs at Edinburgh Fringe 2023 – 2025, Melbourne International Comedy Festival 2023 – 2024, Leicester Comedy Festival 2024 and Adelaide Fringe 2023.

Broadly speaking, we have ways to make you write!

Hey everybody, Moving to Berlin is an adventure, but let’s be real—the bureaucracy is a headache and making friends in a city this big can feel like a full-time job. Whether you’ve been here for three days or three years, the **Expat Stammtisch** is your home base to meet cool people. 🍻 We have a reserved area just for us. Grab a drink, find a spot, and join any conversation. **Ready to join?** See you at the bar!

New Starting Time: 12:00 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.

How can we take our meditation practice into our lives as a powerful agent of change and stability in a chaotic world? 🧘🏼🌎 Starts 2 June: In this 6-week workshop, come with a long-term goal related to your life or career that you really want to solve: each week, we’ll explore how you can approach that goal through Buddhist meditation. Then, we will work towards solving that goal through group coaching within the frame of our meditation practice. Note: Thanks to a generous sponsor, we are now able to OPEN the Tendrel in Action program for anyone to join on a donation basis. As part of this adjustment, we have also adjusted the start date of the program to begin on 2 June at 18:30 instead of 26 May to allow more people to join. Come bring a problem or goal that you want to focus on, something juicy that you really want to solve in life: this could be figuring out \- how to move to Berlin\, \- open up your own coffee shop\, \- go on more dates\, \- figure out what you want to do with your life\, or really anything else that feels important to you. Sessions will be led by Nico and will run for 90 minutes, combining meditation, breakout groups, visualization exercises, Jungian depth coaching, and more. 📍Bodhispace (Neckarstrasse 12, 12053 Berlin) 🗓️Tuesday, 2 June 6.30PM (1st Session) 🎟️ This is now a drop-in only event, so there is no pre-registration is required. Just come by without commitments! Minimum Donation: 5€. ❔Feel free to DM or email us or [@cumulonicolas](https://www.instagram.com/cumulonicolas/) with related questions. The programme will be guided by Nico (IG: [@cumulonicolas](https://www.instagram.com/cumulonicolas/)) from Here Be Dragons Coaching. A life-long student of Sogyal Rinpoche and Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche, Nico is a Depth Coach who grew up in a Buddhist family in the West. For the past 5 years, he has worked at the intersection of Tibetan Buddhism, human-centered design, and Jungian & Gestalt approaches to coaching and psychotherapy.

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.

It's all about getting films made. If you have a film idea that is burning a hole in your brain, tell the people in the audience your story idea and hopefully you will meet people who can help you make your idea into a reality! This event is also for people who want to help out in all aspects of filmmaking to help make these pitches happen. So if your passion is camera, sound, hair and makeup, writing, lighting, fighting, or anything that could help, you are always welcome. Whether you're new to filmmaking or experienced and want to work on something cool and creative, no matter what your area of expertise/interest is, this is for you! Be sure to show up to either pitch your idea or be ready to listen to some interesting pitches from excited people and potentially help someone make their film. Let's make some cool shit! If you still want more information you can head on over to our website: https://berlinfilmcommunity.com/pitch-planning.php I have been a part of making some of these pitched projects into real world movies and I have always had a blast.

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!
