¿Alguna vez has discutido con un amigo por algo “pequeño”… que en realidad no era tan pequeño? ¿Te has quedado con palabras guardadas durante años por no incomodar la amistad? **Drama de Amistad en Vivo: Expectativas, Lealtades y Conflictos Reales (para personas de 45 a 56 años)** es una experiencia íntima donde un grupo de amigos se atreve a intercambiar roles y representar conflictos reales. Esas conversaciones pendientes, esas lealtades silenciosas, esas expectativas no dichas… todo sale a escena. Con humor inteligente, ironía madura y ese toque de “yo no soy así… ¿o sí?”, veremos reflejadas nuestras propias historias. Porque a esta edad ya no peleamos por tonterías… peleamos por principios o por valores. **coste actividad:** 5€ para gastos de material y organización. Aparte pedir una bebida en el local (puede ser un refresco, agua, té o café).

Let’s knock down some pins and knock back a few drinks while we’re at it. Bowling is one of the best stress relievers out there, so bring your A game and let’s see what you’ve got. It’s $20 per person, which includes free shoe rental and two hours of open bowling. We’ll start with six people per lane. Once we have six, we’ll grab our lane and get rolling. If more people show up after that, we’ll snag the lane right next to us and keep the party going. Come ready to have some fun.

Come ready to play. We’re turning dinner into a full-on game night. Card games, competitive chaos, and yes, those long strategic nerd games my friends love to play. We’ll also have Jackbox games on the big screen so everyone can jump in and talk a little trash. There will be pizza. There will be drinks. There will be snacks. There will absolutely be laughter. Pull up, grab a slice, pick a game, and let’s make it a night. \* This will be at someone's house so address will be given night before the event.
