Rafael Portugal apresenta o espetáculo “Tô Só Desabafando” em turnê pelo Brasil. O humorista Rafael Portugal sobe aos palcos com seu solo de comédia “Tô Só Desabafando”, um espetáculo leve, divertido e repleto de histórias pessoais, situações inusitadas do cotidiano, bastidores da TV e momentos absurdos de sua vida — tudo contado com seu olhar afiado e estilo inconfundível. A apresentação é dinâmica e evidencia toda a versatilidade de Rafael, que transita com naturalidade entre o stand-up clássico, improvisos e esquetes, sempre com sua marca registrada: a espontaneidade. O show tem duração aproximada de 70 minutos e classificação indicativa de 14 anos. Um dos nomes mais carismáticos e populares da comédia brasileira, Rafael Portugal é conhecido por seus trabalhos no Porta dos Fundos, no programa A Culpa é do Cabral e pelas memoráveis participações no CAT BBB, da Rede Globo. Com uma forte conexão com o público, o humorista já levou mais de 600 mil pessoas aos teatros de todo o país, consolidando-se como um dos grandes destaques do humor nacional. **Link para a compra dos ingressos:** https://olhaoingresso.showare.com.br/Default.aspx?EVENTID=1960&sw_sc=internettsa&trk_eventId=1960 **Valores:** \- Inteira: R$120 \+ taxa de R$18\. \- Ingresso solidário \+ 1 kg de alimento não perecível: R$40 \+ taxa de R$6\. \- Meia\-entrada: R$60 \+ taxa de R$9\. **Comprei o ingresso solidário, lugar B4.** *xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx* *É novo no grupo?

Meeting tradicional do English Brazil para a prática do inglês em encontros presenciais. Esse é um meeting que já é tradicional. Nos reunimos sempre em um local público para praticar conversação em inglês, e ficamos do lado de uma cafeteria para que você possa comprar o seu café enquanto conversa com a gente. O objetivo é criar um ambiente descontraído e amigável para que todos possam praticar o inglês sem pressão. Não importa se você é iniciante ou avançado, todos são bem-vindos! Não é necessário confirmar presença, e o valor é de graça, também não cobramos nada para participar. Apenas apareça, mostre interesse, e alguém irá te convidar para puxar uma cadeira para perto da mesa para praticarmos. Tradicionalmente nos reunimos sempre às sextas-feiras, dentro do Shopping Center 3 (ao lado da estação Consolação do metrô), no térreo, em frente à cafeteria Havanna Café. Sempre das 20h00 às 22h00, quando o shopping fecha. Então, se quiser praticar a conversação em inglês em um ambiente amigável e sem precisar estabelecer nenhum compromisso, este é o local certo! \-\-\- And foreigners are also welcome! We Brazilians always have a very healthy curiosity to learn about your ideas, your experiences, and the differences in customs and languages. We are also, by nature, very willing to help foreigners feel more at ease here in Brazil. It's also a great opportunity to network and meet locals who can make you feel at home. We always meet on Fridays, inside Shopping Center 3 (next to Consolação subway station), on the ground floor, in front of the Havanna Café. Always from 8:00 PM to 10:00 PM, when the mall closes.

Celebrate the people who became part of your story while you paint your own ceramic piece! In a world where so many of our conversations happen through screens, some connections still feel deeply real. A best friend. A partner. A person who was there at the right time. Someone who changed the way you see life, love, friendship, or yourself. This collab between Walk and Talk and Formiga Ateliê is a 3-hour ceramics and English conversation experience. While you paint your own ceramic mug, you’ll be guided through meaningful English conversation prompts about the important relationships in your life: how they started, how they grew, what made them last, and why they still matter. In the end you can keep your piece as a personal memory or give it as a gift to the person who inspired it. This is not just a ceramics class. It is a moment to slow down, disconnect from your phone, remember, create, and celebrate someone meaningful. The experience includes: - 3-hour guided ceramics experience - Breakfast/brunch - 1 Mug - Paints, brushes, tools, and everything you need to create your piece Technical assistance The Formiga Ateliê team will provide you with a crash course in portuguese just so things are crystal clear on how to handle the materials and paint your ceramic piece successfully and in the way you want Finishing and lacquering After the experience, your piece will be finished, lacquered, cured, and tempered by the studio Participants will be able to retrieve their pieces up to 30 days later. Even though the pieces are always ready before the 30 day deadline we ask for this timeframe because the ceramic pieces need to go through the proper finishing process at a separate ceramics studio IMPORTANT DETAIL Investment: R$300 per perso Duration: 3 hour Language: All interactions will be in English except maybe for some technical explanations if participants have any specific questions about techniques and processes Spots: Limited to 12 participant Included piece: 1 mug per participan There will also be other ceramic pieces available at the studio in different formats and price ranges. Participants can choose to paint extra pieces, which will be charged separately

Teatro - Fim de Partida - SESC Pinheiros - 31/05 - 18h Escrita e montada originalmente na Europa pouco mais de uma década após o fim da segunda guerra, Fim de Partida é uma reação ao cenário de ruína física e simbólica, à falta de sentido em um mundo colapsado. A Europa, ainda sob os escombros, vivia uma profunda crise de identidade, social, política, existencial. No Brasil de 2025, ainda que em outro contexto, enfrentamos também uma espécie de colapso: polarizações, esgotamento institucional, solidão hiperconectada, guerras envolvendo comunidades vulneráveis, narcotráfico, milícias, desigualdades econômicas abissais, crise ambiental, ou seja, um mal-estar social persistente e uma sensação de fim.

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

[Columbus library link to book](https://cml.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C3351321) Location: The Goat River South 219 S High St, Columbus, OH 43215 Street parking is free on Sundays [Menu](https://static1.squarespace.com/static/686d3ed16745133042482c5f/t/68ff654dbb03b96875430bde/1761568077220/all_brunch-20250311.pdf) Book summary: On a hot day in Bethlehem, a twelve-year-old Palestinian-American girl is yelled at by a group of men outside the Church of the Nativity. She has exposed her legs in a biblical city, an act they deem forbidden, and their judgement will echo on through her adolescence. When our narrator finally admits to her mother that she is queer, her mother's response only intensifies a sense of shame: 'You exist too much,' she tells her daughter. Told in vignettes that flash between the U.S. and the Middle East--from New York to Jordan, Lebanon, and Palestine--Zaina Arafat's debut novel traces her protagonist's progress from blushing teen to sought-after DJ and aspiring writer.

Join us as we get together to see the top-reviewed comedy-drama, I LOVE BOOSTERS! The film comes from writer/director Boots Riley and follows a group of shoplifters who take aim at a cutthroat fashion maven. Here are details, trailers and our plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: The film follows a group of shoplifters who take aim at a cutthroat fashion maven. It is written/directed by Boots Riley (Sorry to Bother You) and stars Keke Palmer, Naomi Ackie, Taylour Paige, Poppy Liu, Eiza González, LaKeith Stanfield, Will Poulter, Don Cheadle, and Demi Moore. BUZZ AND ACCLAIM: I Love Boosters was the opening film at this year’s SXSW Festival and premiered to rave reviews! 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! Established way back in 1870 in Cincinnati, this historic, family-owned brand is famous for their delicious small batch ice cream and any chocolate chunk flavors! They are currently the only commercial ice cream maker using the French Pot method that they’ve been using since they first opened! Plus, those chocolate chunks, oh my goodness! Vegan options are available. PLAN: We’ll plan for a 7pm-ish showing and will meet in the lobby area about 20 minutes before the show. Advance ticket purchase not required for this theater but Showtime and complete details will be confirmed/announced as the date gets closer. Look forward to seeing you there, Dan

Happy Birthday to all June birthday people! I put this on the schedule because it's my birthday month, and this is my favorite place; it's also Dave Koczur's (MAFIA meetup leader) birthday on June 8; if you who are reading this have a June birthday as well, tell us in the Comments! For anyone off work or with a flexible schedule, come to Pistachio Vera in German Village for a tea and pastry. We will try to get a table outside. If convenient, you could put a fold up chair in your car in case we can all sit outside but we run out of chairs. https://www.pistaciavera.com/
