📌 **What** Goditi Isola come un vero local! 🍹✨ Unisciti a noi per un venerdì sera "alla milanese": zero stress, niente tavoli assegnati, solo buona compagnia e vibes da piazzetta. ***Come funziona:*** ci troviamo inizialmente al **Lucky Bar** per rompere il ghiaccio con il primo drink. Una volta formato il gruppo, ci spostiamo tutti insieme (sono 150 metri a piedi!) verso **Piazzale Archinto** per continuare la serata nel cuore della movida, tra chiacchiere in piedi e refill tattici al Vinyl o negli altri bar della piazza. ❗️Il team di Meetup non sarà presente. Comunicate con gli altri partecipanti sulla chat WhatsApp per fare gruppo! Maggiori info qui sotto. 📌 **Who** Giovani (20-30enni), milanesi e fuorisede che hanno voglia di conoscere gente nuova in modo easy. Perfetto se cerchi una serata rilassata e "alla mano", lontano dai soliti locali ingessati. 📌 **How** 1\. RSVP per partecipare\. 2\. Entra nel **[gruppo WhatsApp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/CwJKPZI3G0vKqLZRdRtzLr)** — fondamentale per coordinarsi ("Siamo al Lucky", "Ci stiamo spostando in piazza"). 3\. \(Per favore per favore per favore\) **tieni aggiornato il tuo RSVP su Meetup** 🫶

📌 **What** Feeling a little *youngish and lostish*? Same. Join this aperitivo where you can meet other 20- and 30-somethings who are also navigating the “What am I doing with my life?” era — but in good company. ***How it works***: you show up, grab a drink, and mingle with people who are just as lost as you are. ❗️**The Meetup team won’t be there**, you need to connect with other participants in the Whatsapp chat to form a group! More info below. 📌 **Who** Lost souls in their 20s/30s—Milanese, *fuorisede* or expats, all are welcome! 📌 **How** 1. **RSVP to join**. 2. **Join the** **[Whatsapp group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/FsAGckbAhzo6WboaZkrusJ)** — the group helps handle logistics and connect with other participants before the event. 3.

The games start officially at **21:00**.

VENERDI' 19 Dicembre 2025 Dalle 21:00 Alle 23:45 @ArteMadia _ zona NoLo Milano Che cos'è l'ecstatic dance? L'Ecstatic Dance è un processo che ti permette di scoprire la tua danza personale, così unica che non può essere riprodotta da nessun altro. La danza consapevole e libera è il linguaggio d'elezione per esprimere in modo diretto e primordiale la nostra energia più pura. Questa esperienza ci dona una libertà infinita dai vincoli e dai giudizi in modo che possiamo espandere il nostro potenziale e muoverci fino a liberare la vitalità più autentica che è in noi. Il Dance floor assume un'energia esplosiva quando tutti si lasciano andare alla propria danza e l'estasi naturale viene condivisa. Ti chiediamo gentilmente di arrivare in orario così da poter incominciare tutti insieme. TIME TABLE: 21:00 Welcome 21:30 Warm Up: Francesca La notte 21:45 Ecstatic Dance: Dj Massi The Lokett 23.30 : Landing /Sound Healing 23:45 Closing Circle

Una serata antidoto al buonismo delle feste. Dopo cene aziendali, brindisi e riunioni di famiglia in cui si diventa tutti più buoni, ecco una serata detox per ridere su verità scomode e sentirsi un po’ più cattivi (o al massimo solo più onesti). Tre artisti sul palco una sola missione: smascherare cliché, contraddizioni e assurdità della vita di tutti i giorni con cinismo tagliente e ironia spietata. Come funziona? Quali sono le cose peggiori che ti sono capitate a Natale? raccontaci tutto in anonimo e durante la serata e 3 comicǝ sul palco -armatǝ di ironia tagliente, cinismo affilato e zero intenzione di compiacere- troveranno il modo per liberarti da quei sassolini nella scarpa che ti sono rimasti. Dark Comedy Night: interazione, impro, vendette collettive: un rito collettivo di liberazione. Risate e cattiveria assicurate. DANIELA CARTA Daniela Carta registra la trasmissione Comedy Central nel 2025. “La Barbie e la Bestia” è il suo secondo monologo. Con risate caustiche e cinismo racconta dei disagi e delle incongruenze della società moderna, divisa tra la parte che appare e la parte più bieca che è in ognuno di noi. MARCO MORETTI Comico con radici nel cabaret di Malmö, debutta a Copenhagen nel 2018 e conquista il Göteborg Fringe Festival nel 2019. Dopo queste esperienze all’estero, torna in Italia nel 2022 e si afferma al Garpez di Voghera. Nel 2023 dà vita al collettivo La Fossa Biocomica. Nel 2024 gira Lussemburgo, Germania e Austria insieme ad Andrea PaoneLa sua stand-up esplora religione, immigrazione, salute mentale e Tinder a quarant’anni con ironia e coraggio MATTIA RELLINI Mattia Rellini nasce nel 1986, anno dell’esplosione di Chernobyl, fatto che in parte spiega i vuoti mentali di cui è fatto. Si laurea in legge e studiando le leggi italiane si appassiona ai testi comici. Segue un corso come autore e speaker radiofonico e co-conduce le Mine Vaganti, un format radiofonico per Radio L’Aquila1 in Fm e web. Poi a Milano segue un corso di scrittura comica allo Zelig, un corso di recitazione base al Campo Teatrale e un corso di scrittura e conduzione televisiva. E’ autore e interprete comico.

📌 **What** Looking for a way to mix art, sustainability, and good company? Join us for a fascinating dive into the future of creativity at the **"Arte Circolare"** exhibition at Triennale Milano! ***How it works***: Forget waste—come see how "scraps" and contemporary fragility can inspire new world visions. Meet at **17:00 in front of TRIENNALE MILANO**, get inside and ask about the exposition. You'll see works from ten talented artists (including Binta Diaw, Matilde Sambo, and Agnes Questionmark) each using different techniques to explore the symbolic dimension of a complex, yet stimulating, future world.

# **Band: Firefly Trace, caller Kenny Greer** Beginner lesson at 7:30, regular dancing begins at 8:00 **Sponsor: All Soles Contra and Square Dancing, First Unitarian Universalist Church, 93 W. Weisheimer Rd., Columbus OH 43214** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. Please bring your own refillable water bottle.

Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you knew Del Close on a personal level, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games! The idea behind improv is to create entire scenes from scratch based on a suggestion from the audience. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway*, *ComedySportz*, or *Wild 'n Out*; it could also be done to tell stories, like *Middleditch and Schwartz*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!

Join us as we kick the New Year with a fun Happy Hour and your choice of two fun, new films! Option 1 is the biographical-musical-docu-drama, SONG SUNG BLUE, which stars Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson in the story about a real-life couple and Neil Diamond Tribute Duo. Option 2 is the comedy-action-adventure ACACONDA, which stars Jack Black and Paul Rudd as part of a group of friends remaking a favorite movie from their youth. Here’s a complete description, trailer and our plan for this event: SONG SUNG BLUE: The film follows Lightning and Thunder, a Milwaukee husband and wife Neil Diamond tribute act, who experience success and heartbreak in their musical journey together. Not a tribute to Neil Diamond, but a tribute to a Neil Diamond Tribute Band! The film is based on the 2008 documentary of the same name and is directed by Craig Brewer. It stars Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson, along with Michael Imperioli, Ella Anderson, King Princess, Mustafa Shakir, Hudson Hensley, Fisher Stevens and Jim Belushi. Critics call the film, “a crowd-pleaser with a ton of heart!” TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GCM0Ztp3o1o ANACONDA: In this action-thriller-comedy-adventure, a group of friends going through a mid-life crisis head to the jungle to remake a favorite movie from their youth but encounter “unexpected events.” The film is directed by Tom Gormican and stars Jack Black, Paul Rudd, Selton Mello, Daniela Melchior, Thandiwe Newton and Steve Zahn. The film is a reimagining of the 1997 original. TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMsFsfrPNaw PLAN: We’ll kick off the event with a pre-show Happy Hour at nearby Bravo! We’ll confirm the details and exact meeting time once we get the showtimes, but planning for 5 to 5:30pm for the Happy Hour and a 7pm-ish showing of both films. For the movies, we’ll meet inside the lobby area about 20 minutes before showtimes! Once showtimes are announced, advance ticket purchase is advised. Once you have yours, please list your Movie of Choice and seat number in the Comments below. Complete details will be confirmed and announced as the date gets closer. Look forward to seeing you there, Dan
