Jogo da Cena (Show de Improviso)
Jogo da Cena (Show de Improviso)
**Comedia improvisada – humor ao vivo!** Jogo da Cena é um espetáculo de comédia improvisada que reúne artistas experientes do humor para brincar em cena, criar histórias do nada e se colocar em jogo diante do público. Tudo acontece ao vivo e sem roteiro. Em cena, Ian Soffredini convida alguns dos melhores improvisadores da cidade, formando elencos diferentes a cada apresentação, sempre acompanhados por um músico improvisador. A proposta é simples: reunir gente muito boa de humor para jogar junto, correr riscos e se divertir em cena. As cenas nascem a partir da interação com a plateia, que sugere temas, situações e provocações. A partir disso, os improvisadores criam na hora cenas imprevisíveis, guiadas pelo jogo e pelo encontro com o público. Jogo da Cena é comédia feita no agora: artistas experientes, jogo rápido, muita interação e risada garantida. **Direção** Ian Soffredini. **Elenco** Allan Benatti, Gabriella Argento, Alícia Ignácio, Amanda Massaro, Bruno Motta, Priscilla, Diego Becker, Edson Duavy e muito mais! **Ingresso:** Setor A \- Inteira: R$ 120\,00 Meia: R$ 60\,00 \| Setor B \- Inteira: R$ 90\,00 Meia: R$ 45\,00 MAS ESTA ROLANDO DESCONTO, PAGUEI SETOR A SO 24 + TAX https://teatrouol.com.br/espetaculos/jogo-da-cena-2/ **PEGUEI SETOR A - POLTRONA F01** **HOST: Andrea** *xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx* *É novo no grupo?

Casos de uso, features, dicas, sugestões, formas para contribuir, etc. ​Rust é uma linguagem de programação para sistemas de baixo nível, com enfoque a velocidade, prevenção de erros de memória e segurança entre threads. ​Apesar de ser uma linguagem que permite acesso baixo nível, ideal para pequenos devices e programas gráficos, ela possui muitos dos benefícios de uma linguagem de alto nível, tendo uma legibilidade próxima de Ruby ou JavaScript.

Speak Easy (Storytelling)
Speak Easy (Storytelling)
The topic for March is "Our Bodies, Ourselves" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!

Walk & Talk About Life's Big Questions
Walk & Talk About Life's Big Questions
[The Board Walks](http://www.theboardwalks.com/) are for curious people who love deep conversations. If that sounds like you, **bring a thoughtful topic** and join us for a 5-mile walk (10,000+ steps!). **HOW IT WORKS** **Step 1: Bring a topic** Before you arrive, think of **one** topic you want to explore. A question. A thought that's been on your mind. An obsession you want to geek out on. This is your ticket to the event. **Step 2: Circle up & share** We gather in a circle. Your friendly walk host gives a speech to set the tone. Everyone shares: your name, what you're grateful for, and your topic. That's it. 60 seconds. **Step 3: Walk, talk & float** We walk 5 miles. You naturally drift into conversation with 2-3 people at a time, pulled by topics that spark your curiosity. When you're ready to move on, just say: "I'm going to float!" **Step 4: Feel more alive** Two hours flies by. You're back where you started — but you feel different. More alive. More energized. More connected to yourself and others. That's why regulars join 20+ times. *For more details, read our [Orientation Guide.](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation)* **HOW TO BRING A GREAT TOPIC** A great topic = something you're genuinely curious about. Recent topics include: * "What are you passionate about right now?" * "What makes a good friend?" * "What's a belief you used to hold that you've completely changed?" * "How do you want to be remembered?" * "What would you do if money wasn't a factor?" Think of your topic like the dish you're bringing to our conversational potluck. If everyone brings an A+ dish (i.e. energizing, uplifting, expansive), we'll all walk away feeling lighter and brighter. **WHAT TO EXPECT** This isn't a fitness event with casual chitchat. It's a walking think tank where we explore life's big questions together, beyond small talk. *If you're looking for light banter or a standard networking event, this probably isn't the right fit.* But if you crave depth, genuine connection, and conversations that make you feel alive? You'll love it here. **FAQ** * Wear casual athletic attire and sneakers. It's a long walk! * We have multiple first-timers at each event. We work hard to create a welcoming, inclusive, clique-free space. * We welcome people of **all** ages, backgrounds, and industries who align with the [intention](https://www.theboardwalks.com/ground-rules) of this space. * Rain or shine, we've been out here nearly every week since July 2022. If the event is cancelled, we'll let you know. * Dogs, babies in strollers, parents, and friends are welcome — please text/email them the event link so they can RSVP and prepare a topic! **LOGISTICS** * If you'll arrive over 10 minutes late, we suggest skipping the event. It's hard to find us once we start walking, and your host can't answer messages during the event. * This walk is designed for everyone to *move together at the same steady pace* (about 20 min/mile). This format works best when the whole group moves in unison. If you have mobility limitations, we kindly encourage you to find an event better suited to your needs. * Read our [Orientation Guide](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation) for full details. * If you enjoy the event, send **[this](http://www.theboardwalks.com/)** to a friend or sign up for our **[newsletter](https://theboardwalks.beehiiv.com/)**. We're in multiple cities with more on the way. 🤠👋 **IF YOU WANT TO GO DEEPER...** [The Board](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board) is the next step: a high-trust collective for renaissance people devoted to creating, connecting, and building lives that light us up. * This is a global HQ for people who crave big talk, deep connection, and dream collaborations with people across industries. If the walks feel like a spark... The Board is the fire. Apply [here](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board).
