**[BOOK YOUR TICKETS HERE](https://www.barcelonaimprovgroup.com/shows)** Welcome to the community event with the freshest improv talent. In the first half, Kaleido Improv: every choice has consequences. Some are just more fun to watch! Kaleido Improv brings to you Coin Flip, an improvised longform storytelling experience where a single question splits the story in two. With the flip of a coin, the narrative leaps into parallel realities, unfolding unscripted and unplanned, as each choice sends the story spinning into the unknown. No script, no safety net, just bold decisions, alternate paths, and the thrill of discovering what could have been. In the second half, join Cascades and explore the world of pretty flower with their show Any Minute Now! Watch the team build an engaging world full of shiny characters and rich back stories. Improvised in front of your eyes, with the same trademark Cascades humor, under the added pressure of a ticking clock! **4:30pm** Doors & Bar Open **5:00pm** Show Starts **Tickets:** Early Bird **8€** *(book by Thursday)* General **10€** *\*30% discount for current students of BIG*

🍄 Los hongos y el micelio. Encuentros entre arte, ciencia y políticas 🍄 A partir de un recorrido por artistas que trabajan con hongos y micelio, nos preguntaremos por los nuevos imaginarios que emergen a partir de estas prácticas artísticas. ¿Cómo cambia nuestro concepto de naturaleza? ¿Cómo se redefine la manera en que entendemos la creación artística? ¿Cómo entendemos y practicamos las relaciones multiespecies? ¿Qué responsabilidades éticas surgen al trabajar con seres no humanos? Con la ayuda del reino fungi, pensaremos en la muerte y la descomposición, en temporalidades no humanas y en cómo salir del pensamiento binario. Helen(a) Torres es socióloga, traductora y profesora. Su trabajo se centra en las articulaciones entre lenguaje, artes y políticas desde perspectivas feministas y anticoloniales. Facilita talleres de fabulación especulativa y seminarios centrados en el trabajo de Donna Haraway, de quien ha traducido la mayoría de sus obras y alrededor de cuyas propuestas desarrolla proyectos artísticos y de investigación. Es profesora de pensamiento crítico, teoría queer y teorías feministas. Actualmente es doctoranda en el Departamento de Historia del Arte de la Universidad de Barcelona con una tesis sobre bioarte y está traduciendo 'Cuando se encuentran las especies', de Donna Haraway.

Join us every other Sunday for the Open Clown Workshop at The Comedy Clubhouse Barcelona. Whether you’re an experienced clown wanting to exercise your clowning muscles or a complete beginner full of curiosity this workshop is for you. Sessions will usually focus on one particular aspect of clown for example: bafflement, befriending uncertainty, staying curious, freedom in failure, connecting with your pleasure, finding the game, eye contact with the audience. Our usual workshop teachers are experienced clowns who perform regularly in Barcelona and around the world. They have either trained with the legendary clown master Philipe Gaulier; performed at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival; organised their own cabaret shows; or have experience of developing clown numbers elsewhere. While every teacher has different strengths and exercises they’ll share, each workshop is designed to inspire you and help develop your skills as a comedic performer. This is a great place to meet new people, play games, have fun & learn new skills! The session lasts from 15.00 until 17:30 and it operates as a Pay What You Want workshop (suggested donation between 5 and 15 euros). It takes place at the Comedy Clubhouse on Via Laietana (be careful because there are two Comedy Clubhouses! It does not take place at the one on Carrer Canvis Nous!)

Main Library, Meeting Room 2B Join us for a welcoming evening of reflection, gentle music, and meaningful conversation. We’ll begin with a short grounding moment, followed by a brief reading from spiritual or philosophical traditions, and an open reflection circle where participants can share (or simply listen). Libera Animae is an interfaith community focused on inner growth, creativity, and authentic connection. All backgrounds are welcome.

The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 **Abstract** Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively. This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way. **YouTube Link** TBA
