Let's Play Improv Games in the Park! :)
Let's Play Improv Games in the Park! :)
Join us for a great afternoon full of fun games involving acting, improvisation, and theater! No experience or acting skills required. All you need is imagination! Anyone who is interested in trying something new is welcome. It's also a great way to meet people, or to practice your English. After the event we usually go for drinks and/or dinner together. **What do we do in this event?** We will play all sorts of games that involve acting and improvisation. Many of them you might know from the TV show "Whose Line is it Anyway?". The games we play are different every time, but here are some typical examples: [https://youtu.be/Y_KMYPsPNXQ](https://youtu.be/Y_KMYPsPNXQ) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkxRzV3gtDc](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkxRzV3gtDc) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OXMcdieubL0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OXMcdieubL0) If you don't like some of the games, don't worry, you can participate in as many games as you like and it's perfectly fine to skip any games you don't like. **How much does it cost?** We're charging 2 euros per person. This is just to help recover some of the expenses of the meetup account. We're hosting this event only for fun and we do not intend to make any money out of it. You can pay in cash or by Bizum when you arrive at the event. **In what language will this event be?** All games will be played in English. Of course, we do not expect you to speak perfect English, but without a basic level of English it will be hard to participate (if you're not sure about your level of English, just come along and try). **Can I come to just watch?** Sure! If you don't want to participate, or if you're not sure yet, then you're welcome to just come along and watch. **What do I need to bring or wear?** You don't need to bring or wear anything special. However, it is advisable to wear comfortable clothes that allow you to move easily. **Do I need to prepare anything?** Nope! The whole point of improvisation is that you can't prepare anything :) **If I want to join, do I need to sign up?** Yes, please! Even if there are more than enough places, it is very important that you still sign up for this event. This is for two reasons: 1\. If not enough people sign up then we may have to cancel the event\. 2\. The more people sign up\, the more attractive this event becomes for other people to also sign up\. Anyway, if you forget to sign up you're still more than welcome to join :) **Where do we meet?** We meet in the Parc de la Ciutadella. If you're coming from the Arc de Triomf and enter the park, turn left directly after the entrance. You will see a big industrial art piece (see photos). Keep walking until you passed it. We meet right behind this art piece. When we arrive at the meeting point we usually upload a selfie to the photos section of this event, so you can recognize us. We also usually bring a small A4-sized meetup sign. **What happens if it rains?** In case of rain we will move the event to the Mercat Sant Antoni, where we can play under a roof. In that case, please keep an eye on the comments section of this event for further details. **Can I suggest some games to play?** Sure! If you know any fun games that are related to improv theater and that you would like to play, just let the organizers know before the start of the event. We're always happy to receive input from the participants. **Do you have a Whatsapp group to stay in contact after the event?** Yes, we do! If you want to join our group, please ask the organizers to add you, before or after the event.

CONFERENCIA: 2026 AÑO DEL SALTO CUÁNTICO
CONFERENCIA: 2026 AÑO DEL SALTO CUÁNTICO
Hola a todos!! Tenemos una nueva conferencia muy interesante . 2026: Año del salto cuántico. "En año de tribulaciones, no te cambies de país" decía Cervantes. Necesario capear el temporal sin cambios excesivos centrándose en lo pequeño, lo cotidiano. En los tiempos líquidos actuales, terminología generada por Zygmunt Bauman en la que manifiesta la falta de vinculación real en una sociedad individualista , es necesario estabilizar lo que realmente tiene valor, ya que en los cambios presentes, lo esencial que se elige cuidar ahora es lo que nos llevaremos con nosotros. Quedara atrás lo que no esta listo para el futuro. Igual que la Flor del Loto muestra su belleza en medio del lodo, nosotros podemos mostrar la nuestra en medio de todos estos movimientos actuales. Conferencia a cargo de : Ana Isabel Martínez -Economista, Mediadora de conflictos, Adulta Indigo, Naturista, Meditadora y Conferenciante. Sábado 23 de mayo en Restaurante Nova Galicia , C/ Calabria 224 Metro L-5 estación de Entenza, a las 19:00h. OS ESPERAMOS!!
How to Have a Successful Panic Attack: standup comedy special
How to Have a Successful Panic Attack: standup comedy special
Being from a Scottish island where mental health problems don't exist can make navigating life challenging. But being a comedian can make it hilarious! Join standup comedian Stuart Kennedy on a journey through the ups (and ups) and downs (and downs) of a life well lived, and laugh at all the things that make our brains tick. A high-energy hour of standup that asks the question: 'If a comedian has a panic attack and doesn't write a show about it, did they really have a panic attack at all?' Stuart Kennedy is an award-winning Scottish comedian who regularly headlines across Europe, and has brought several award-winning shows to the Edinburgh Fringe including the D&D-inspired 'Comedians & Dragons', and the cult heckle show 'Absolute Chaos'. This is a Pay What You Want show. [Reserve your free spot here.](https://thecomedyclubhouse.es/event/how-to-have-a-successful-panic-attack-2/)

Charcha Film Club: "American Psycho - satire over reality"
Charcha Film Club: "American Psycho - satire over reality"
**THIS WEEK: “AMERICAN PSYCHO - SATIRE OVER REALITY”** We'll be watching and discussing clips from AMERICAN PSYCHO through the prism of it being a satire, not a horror (although aren't they the same in this case?) Try to watch the film before coming to the meetup! Although we're sure you'll enjoy it even more after attending this event! This event will be free so please buy drinks/food from us at Charcha to keep making these cultural events possible. **ALSO SHOW YOUR OWN CLIPS!** We will then have a break before the second half of the meetup where anyone can show a clip (usually youtube) from any film, tv, short etc. which they think is relevent/could help the discussion. The clip can be prepared or you can think of it in the session and we will do our best to pull it up on the screen! We will have clips ready too as backups although we want your perspectives! If you know a clip you'd like to show/discuss before attending a session, feel free to send it to me privately (meetup or WhatsApp 622229697) or to our WhatsApp group beforehand ([https://chat.whatsapp.com/DVL01x0sUYH2ZeZ5FDfUaI?mode=gi_t](https://chat.whatsapp.com/DVL01x0sUYH2ZeZ5FDfUaI?mode=gi_t)) so that we can have it prepared. **“Why another film club?” You may ask.** Talking about a film can never replace watching one...never. But we've found that when watching a film, a little context can go a long way. So we’ve decided to create a film club in the hope that there are other people out there who feel the same; who will enjoy exploring their own perspectives as well as others beyond justifying why you like or dislike a film. There is no judgement of films here. A-movie, B-movie, high-brow, low-brow, smart, dumb. This will be an open-discussion. There’ll be themes and certain films chosen but respectful interruptions and questions will be welcome throughout. To paraphrase Bong Joon-ho, once you overcome your knee-jerk judgement of a film, you can be introduced to so many more amazing films. This is a new meetup and the format may change. But for now, we will not show whole films at the event. Instead they will be announced beforehand and then discussed with clips at the event. We hope in the future, different hosts will choose different topics to focus on ranging from the universal like the essence of a story, to the practical minutia of film-making like cinematography, lighting or sound. Everyone is welcome.

107 eeepBCN: Ataques Corsarios, Barcelona y Don Quijote
107 eeepBCN: Ataques Corsarios, Barcelona y Don Quijote
En los siglos XVI y XVII, el Mediterráneo se vio envuelto en una guerra entre el imperio Otomano y diversas potencias europeas como la monarquía española, Venecia, los Estados Pontificios, etc. Tuvieron en esa guerra un papel destacado la piratería berberisca, norteafricana, que atacó frecuentemente las costas catalanas (y todas las españolas e italianas). La batalla de Lepanto, en la que intervino Cervantes, pareció ponerle fin. Pero no era cierto, y el mismo Cervantes fue capturado por los piratas al volver a España. En la costa catalana, se levantó una red de torres para defender la costa y dar aviso. Esa situación se recoge en el Quijote, en una aventura que sirve perfectamente para explicar toda esta historia. Alfonso López Borgoñoz (Valencia, 1960) es arqueólogo de formación, habiendo participado en diversas campañas arqueológicas y publicado una veintena de artículos en publicaciones especializadas. Recién jubilado (trabajó en el ayuntamiento de Castelldefels -Barcelona-), y entre otras responsabilidades, ha estado de coordinador de actividades, investigación y visitas al castillo de Castelldefels y sus torres de defensa. Fue presidente de ARP-SAPC y estuvo en el equipo de redacción de ‘El Escéptico’, donde ha publicado varios artículos relacionados con la pseudo-arqueología, sobre las llamadas terapias alternativas, contra el creacionismo, así como sobre el derecho al progreso científico. Astrónomo aficionado también, ha dirigido la revista ‘Universo. Astronomía y Astronáutica’ desde 1998 a 1999, publicando diversos de divulgación relacionados con dicha ciencia y con la historia de la astronomía. Ha sido Presidente de la Sección Española de Amnistía Internacional desde abril de 2010 hasta abril de 2014, habiendo colaborado con la entidad con diferentes responsabilidades a lo largo de los últimos treinta años.

It is currently earning a tremendous 97% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes where critics call it, “an unexpected celebration of friendship, community, and solidarity.” Others call the film “an exercise in radical empathy,” a “masterful” and “optimistic” film designed to “provoke discussion” while making the audience laugh. TRAILER: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4lPRISgr9c](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4lPRISgr9c) SUMMER OF ICE CREAM: GRAETER’S!

Drunken Philosophy: What’s up with all the AI hate?
Drunken Philosophy: What’s up with all the AI hate?
**Welcome to Drunken Philosophy** a casual, curious social discussion **Optional topic for this meetup: What's up with all the AI hate?** A recent survey found that 74% of Americans have a negative view of AI, and I want to know why. Come out and debate whether AI is good or bad. My hot take: a labor-saving tool that could potentially help cure cancer gets called dangerous because it might raise unemployment or cause a speculative investment bubble, that tells you a lot more about capitalism and the economic system we live under than it does about the tool itself. As a computer programmer, I think AI is a wonderful tool that has increased my productivity by at least an order of magnitude. I'd go so far as to say Claude Code is the best tool I have ever used. Debate me and name a better one. Is AI potentially dangerous? Yes, but so are a lot of tools. Chainsaws. Steam engines (early ones would occasionally explode and kill everyone in the room). Do you think cavemen sat around debating whether fire could be used as a weapon or for self-harm, and decided not to discover it? I have two friends who hate AI for opposite reasons: one thinks it's a fad and not useful, and the other thinks it's going to take over everything and cause human extinction. Come out tonight, have a friendly debate, and make some friends. No lectures. Friendly crowd. Drop in for one drink and stay if it's fun.
Feel Good Friday: POWER BALLAD  at the Gateway Film Center + SHAKE NO. 8!
Feel Good Friday: POWER BALLAD at the Gateway Film Center + SHAKE NO. 8!
Join us as we get together to see Paul Rudd in the latest comedy-drama-musical from John Carney, POWER BALLAD! The film follows a washed-up wedding singer, a fading boy band singer and a stolen hit song. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Rick, a washed-up wedding singer, and Danny, a fading boy band star, bond over music and a late-night jam session. When Danny turns Rick's song into a hit, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves. Power Ballad is written/directed by John Carney, the master of the modern musical and creative mind behind Once, Begin Again and Sing Street! It stars Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Peter McDonald, Marcella Plunkett, Havana Rose Liu and Jack Reynor. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews at this year’s Dublin International Film Festival where critics call it “a sure-fired crowd-pleaser” that “just might be the feel-good hit of the year!” Others say, “Paul Rudd delivers a career-best performance in this charmer” that’s both “hilarious and deeply moving!” SUMMER OF ICE CREAM, VOL 2: SHAKE NO. 8! Ranked the #1 Ice Cream Shop in Columbus in 2024, this is the perfect place to kick off our Summer of Ice Cream and grab a sweet treat after the show! Their menu features an array of traditional, specialty and vegan shakes, hot cocoa, and more! You can check out their full menu here: [https://www.shakeno8.com/menu.php](https://www.shakeno8.com/menu.php) PLAN: We’ll plan for a 7pm-ish showing and will meet in the lobby area about 20 minutes before the show. Once showtime is announced, advance ticket purchase is advised! Once you have yours, please list your seat number in the Comments section of this event. We'll head to nearby Shake No. 8 immediately following the show! Should be a fun one, Dan
