**On Tuesday 16th June, we're excited to be hosting our latest FREE Board Games Night, exclusively for 20s and 30s.** Yep that's right - to mark Loneliness Awareness Week, we'll be teaming up with Costa Coffee once again to transform a regular cafe into a Board Games Cafe for the evening. For this, we've booked out the whole venue near Southwark and bringing our usual fantastic collection of some of the most popular games that you’ll be able to choose from. From classics like **Exploding Kittens** and **Codenames**, social deduction games like **Werewolf** and **Chameleon**, to party games like **Dixit** and **Scrawl**, you’re sure to find something you’ll love. On top of this, you're also welcome to bring your own games that you love or have been excited to play with a group, providing they are short, easy to learn and accessible games. Best of all, over the course of the evening, you'll be able to mix around, meet lots of friendly 20s and 30s - whilst playing a range of different games. So if you're looking to play some games, meet new people, and have a laugh then we'd love to have you join us for this. **\- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \-** **WHERE/WHEN** Venue - Costa Coffee, 42-48 The Cut, London SE1 8LP Closest Tube stations: Southwark (5 min walk), Waterloo (10 mins walk) Start Time - 7:00pm Finish time: 10:00pm \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- **JOIN THE COMMUNITY** Set up in November 2021, the project was set up to help those in their 20s and 30s meet, connect and hopefully build life-long friendships.

🎬 **Marilyn Monroe’s final film is a poignant and poetic drama, infused with the promise of what could have been had she had more time to explore her skills as a dramatic performer.** 👋 **Hi guys!** **The 100th anniversary of Marilyn Monroe**’s birth, and a two-month retrospective at BFI Southbank, is the occasion for the re-release of her most serious and poignant film. **The Misfits** was directed by John Houston and written by her then husband Arthur Miller. It was intended as a gift, offering Monroe **a more complex, dramatic role**. Their marriage imploded during the heated production, but **Monroe delivers one of her finest performances**. Appearing to **harness the pain of her own life**, she imbues Roslyn with a raw vulnerability, showing a passionate, vulnerable, childlike **free spirit** who finds a complex kind of excitement and freedom.Gable and Clift are superb, but the film would not have soared without Monroe. **The Meetup:** We’ll be meeting for **pre-drinks** at **2:00 PM** at the **BFI Bar**. At 3pm we'll go to NFT Screen 2. After the film, we’ll reconvene for our usual **commentary and [Letterboxd](https://letterboxd.com/movieroadhouse) review**, and will likely continue the night with more drinks around town.

Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you were quoted in *Truth in Comedy*, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**! The idea behind improvised comedy is to create entire scenes from scratch. A suggestion is taken from the audience and laughter is built on the spot. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway, Make Some Noise,* or *Wild 'n Out*; it can also be done in a longer way, to tell a complicated story, like *TJ & Dave*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and FREE!) weekly comedy event, brings the games for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Afterward, many members will hang out in *Gresso's* itself and get to know each other. Not only is this a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, your public speaking, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and build relationships that will last a lifetime, and you do that while laughing your butt off! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "*Yes, And*" that you'll have a blast!

**Our June novel is: *The Eights* by Joanna Miller** **This month’s novel is set during World War I. It’s a 20th-century historical fiction story about friendship and war, with coming-of-age elements and a slightly haunted tone. The book is 384 pages in print and 10 hours and 9 minutes on audiobook.** Oxford, 1920. For the first time in its one-thousand-year history, Oxford University officially admits female students. Burning with dreams of equality, four young women move into neighboring rooms in Corridor 8. Beatrice, Dora, Marianne, and Otto—collectively known as The Eights—come from all walks of life, each driven by their own motives, each holding tight to their secrets, and are thrown into an unlikely, unshakable friendship. Dora was never meant to go to university, but, after losing both her brother and her fiancé on the battlefield, has arrived in their place. Politically-minded Beatrice, daughter of a famous suffragette, sees Oxford as a chance to make her own way - and some friends her own age. Otto was a nurse during the war but is excited to return to her socialite lifestyle in Oxford where she hopes to find distraction from the memories that haunt her. And finally Marianne, the quiet, clever daughter of a village pastor, who has a shocking secret she must hide from everyone, even her new friends, if she is to succeed. Among the historic spires, and in the long shadow of the Great War, the four women must navigate and support one another in a turbulent world in which misogyny is rife, influenza is still a threat, and the ghosts of the Great War don’t always remain dead.
