**Die absurdeste deutsche Comedy-Show Wiens: jung, wild & unberechenbar. Gratis Eintritt – jeden Donnerstag im Comedy Pub.** # [Hol dir deine Tickets hier!!!](https://www.universe.com/events/comedy-sein-vater-absurd-witziges-stand-up-open-mic-thecomedypub-tickets-CZ89PB?ref=MeetUp) Willkommen zu **Comedy sein Vater**, der Show, die klingt wie ein Meme und sich auch so anfühlt. Jeden Donnerstag im *The Comedy Pub* übernehmen junge, wilde Comedians die Bühne, um mit absurden Ideen, schrägen Gags und gnadenlosem Humor das Publikum zum Lachen (und manchmal auch zum Kopfschütteln) zu bringen. Hier gilt: nichts muss, alles kann. Von wahnwitzigen Gedankensprüngen über dunklen Humor bis zu völlig chaotischen Auftritten – **Comedy sein Vater** ist das Open Mic, bei dem Regeln aufhören und die Absurdität beginnt. Wer brave Comedy will, geht woanders hin. Wer das Unerwartete liebt, ist hier genau richtig. ## 🤔 Was ist ein Open Mic? Ein Open Mic ist die Spielwiese der Stand-up-Comedians. Hier werden Ideen geboren, getestet und manchmal auch sofort wieder beerdigt – live, unzensiert und direkt vor Publikum. Genau deshalb ist es so spannend: du erlebst, wie Stand-up entsteht, wie Comedians Risiko eingehen und wie oft daraus die lustigsten Momente des Abends werden. Bei **Comedy sein Vater** ist das Ganze noch ein Stück extremer: mehr Mut, mehr Chaos, mehr Überraschungen. ## 🍻 The Comedy Pub – Zuhause für Chaos & Lacher Austragungsort ist das **The Comedy Pub** (Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Wien) – ein Irish Pub mit Herz und einem historischen Altbaukeller, der wie geschaffen ist für wilde Stand-up-Abende. Oben wartet die Bar mit Drinks und Pub-Atmosphäre, unten der Keller mit Underground-Flair. Niedrige Decken, warme Lichter, intime Stimmung – genau der richtige Ort, um Comedy an ihre Grenzen zu bringen. Dank der U4-Station **Kettenbrückengasse** gleich ums Eck ist die Anreise so einfach wie ein Lacher auf einen guten Witz. ## 💡 Eintritt frei – Spenden willkommen Hier gilt: Lachen kostet nichts, aber wer lacht, sollte geben. Der Eintritt ist frei, Spenden sind willkommen. Jede Reaktion des Publikums – ob Applaus, Gelächter oder betretenes Schweigen – hilft den Comedians, besser zu werden. Aber wer herzhaft gelacht hat, darf das auch im Spendenhut zeigen. ## 🎟️ Regeln für das Publikum Ja, auch im Chaos braucht es ein paar Spielregeln: * Sei pünktlich – sonst verpasst du den besten Wahnsinn. * Respektiere die Bühne – auch wenn’s absurd wird. * Lachen, Stöhnen, Kopfschütteln – alles erlaubt, aber bitte keine Zwischenrufe. * Kein Heckling – das endet nie so lustig, wie du denkst. * Spenden sind Liebe – und Comedy sein Vater lebt davon. ## 🎉 Warum Donnerstag? Weil am Donnerstag alles passieren darf. **Comedy sein Vater** ist das perfekte Ventil für Wochenend-Vibes, die schon zu früh kommen. Hier siehst du Comedians, die an die Grenze gehen – mit Humor, der nicht brav sein will, sondern mutig, absurd und manchmal gnadenlos ehrlich ist. Wenn du eine Show suchst, die dich überrascht, irritiert und garantiert zum Lachen bringt, dann bist du hier genau richtig. Willkommen beim Chaos.

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

Join us for lunch at True Food Kitchen in Easton as we celebrate the New Year and our friendships!

Take a break from the craziness of the holiday season and relax at The Lion with us. This is an new (to me) place in Bexley that serves cocktails, beer and wine, coffee, tea, pastries, snacks, caviar--a little bit of everything. The cocktail they made for The Drexel to sell for screenings of "Wicked For Good" was one of the best cocktails I've ever had. Their tea list is also impressive. Take special note of the Emperor's Private Reserve Pu-erh! https://www.thelionbexley.com/menu I don't know how large the place is, so it's possible we might find places to sit, or we might need to stand. This is an informal event to explore this interesting location.

How to be a Better Communicator Communication is everything in life Sunday, 23 February at 2pm. You are only as successful as your ability to communicate. \- What if you could confidently talk to anyone? \- What if you had the ability to calmly control every conversation? \- What if you could close that sale\, ask for that date\, make new friends\, repair problematic relationships\, get that raise\, or effortlessly express any idea with confidence? You can! The secret to success relies on your ability or inability to effectively communicate. Attend a free seminar and gain a better ability to communicate. Hosted by the Church of Scientology of Central Ohio 1266 Dublin Road, Columbus, OH 43215 For more information, contact Rhiannon, the Event Host at 614-221-5024

Join us as we get the New Year started with one of the best films of the year: THE SECRET AGENT! This political thriller from Brazil is set in 1977 where a man flees from a mysterious past and returns to his hometown but soon finds the city is far from being the refuge he seeks. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: In 1977, a former professor flees from a mysterious past and returns to his hometown of Recife in search of peace. He soon realizes that the city is far from being the refuge he seeks. The film stars Wagner Moura, Carlos Francisco, Tânia Maria, Robério Diógenes, Maria Fernanda Cândido, Gabriel Leone and Udo Kier in his final film role. TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UfrzDKrhEc BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The Secret Agent was the most awarded film at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival where it won Best Actor for Wagner Moura, Best Director for Mendonça Filho, the Art House Cinema Award and the FIPRESCI Prize. At this year’s Golden Globes, it became Brazil’s first film ever to be nominated for Best Film (Drama)! It also received a Golden Globe nomination for Best Foreign Film, a Best Actor nomination for Wagner Moura and was selected as Brazil’s entry for Best International Film at this year’s Academy Awards. The film is receiving an incredible 99% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes where critics say, its “compelling script, impeccable acting, and striking 1970s aesthetic” make it “impossible to look away!” Critics say The Secret Agent is “one of the few standout movies of the year” and the Chicago Tribune calls it a “masterpiece of a film” and “the best film of the year!” PARKING: Close, convenient parking is available in the nearby garage (located between 9th and 11th, just off High St). Bring your ticket with you and have it validated at the theater and for $2, you’re covered for the night! PLAN: We’ll plan for a 7pm-ish showing and will meet in the lobby area about 30 minutes before showtime! With this being a limited release film, we’ll tentatively plan to see it at the Gateway, but location may change based on where it is showing and the showtimes available. Once details are confirmed, advance ticket is advised. Once you have yours, please list your seat number in the Comments section of this event. Showtime, location and complete details will be confirmed and announced as the date gets closer. Happy New Year and look forward to seeing you there, Dan
