Hola, gente bonita 🫶 Lass uns ein Bier trinken, Spanisch-Deutsch sprechen und eine gute Zeit genießen! Grundlegende (oder bessere 😛) Kenntnisse in Spanisch oder Deutsch sind alles, was du brauchst. Vamos a tomar una cerveza, hablar español-alemán y pasarla bien! Un nivel básico (o mejor 😛) de español o alemán es lo único que necesitas.

**Step right up for a fortune-telling experience that's barely accurate, but definitely unforgettable.** Magdalena, the "fortune teller", combines a crystal ball, questionable predictions and a healthy dose of dark humour in a show that's as absurd as it is entertaining. Described by the 'Scotsman' (top newspaper in the UK) as 'unexpected, clever, ridiculous but great stuff, crystal ball and all', this interactive comedy has left audiences worldwide laughing and wondering what just happened. Some say it's life-changing, others call it pure nonsense-but no one escapes without a few laughs, some spirit summoning and answers you probably didn't want. **Sold out run in Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2025** Reserve your seat for just €2, and at the end of the show, you decide what it was worth (suggested contribution: €10-15). Reservations are held until 10 minutes before the show starts. This is a paid show—you just get to choose how much to pay. **Make sure to reserve your ticket [HERE](https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/01-accurate-english-comedy-night-tickets-1980718239574?aff=meetup)**
