 A Very Improvised Christmas Show — Two Black Cats Improv present a Christmas inspired long-form improv night! Get ready for a cosy, chaotic, very improvised evening of comedy at the Studio Theatre (in the Manoel Theatre complex). We’re kicking off with a handful of short-form games to warm you up, then diving into a Christmas-inspired long-form set — a full, connected, made-on-the-spot story built from your suggestions. Expect weird turns, honest laughs, and totally unique theatre that exists for one night only.  Sunday 28th December  Show starts 6:30 PM — finished by 8:30 PM  Studio Theatre \| 81 Old Mint Street  Pay-what-you-can — we’ll be collecting a cash donation during the show, so please bring your wallet! What to expect: \* Short, fast games to get everyone buzzing. \* A long-form improv piece in the second half — no script, all instincts. \* A warm, friendly room — great for improv fans, theatre lovers, and anyone who enjoys being surprised. \* Running time is tight — we start at 6:30 sharp, so please arrive early for a good seat. Bring your friends, bring your best suggestions when the host asks (we love a good prompt), and bring a little cash to support the troupe. This is intimate, live theatre — and you’ll be able to support this budding improv troupe.  See you there — let’s make something out of nothing. — Two Black Cats  (Questions, accessibility needs or want to perform in a future improv night? Email twoblackcatscomedy@gmail.com

The January edition of IndyPy explores how Python extends beyond traditional software development into the world of embedded systems and microcontrollers. Discover how MicroPython brings the simplicity and power of Python to tiny, resource-constrained devices, opening up new possibilities for IoT, robotics, and hardware prototyping. Whether you're curious about embedded development or looking to expand your Python skills into physical computing, this talk will show you how accessible hardware programming can be when you bring Python to the edge. **Join us either in person or remotely for our hybrid event!** * **IN PERSON:** Suite 110 at E-gineering, Inc. (8415 Allison Pointe Blvd, Indianapolis, IN 46250) * **REMOTE:** [Register to get the Zoom link](https://sixfeetup.zoom.us/meeting/register/CnmV2RcETcmsH7oEYWAGzg). **AGENDA** **7 - 7:15pm:** Announcements and Introductions **7:15 - 7:45pm:** **“MicroPython: Bringing Python to the Edge with Microcontrollers” by Drew Westrick, Glassboard CTO and Co-Founder** You love Python, now let's put it to work on tiny, cost-optimized, dedicated computers! MicroPython is a lean and efficient implementation of the Python 3 language that runs directly on microcontrollers (MCUs) like the popular Raspberry Pi Pico. If you've ever been intimidated by embedded development and ASM/C/C++, MicroPython lets you leverage your existing Python skills for IoT, robotics, vision systems, and creative hardware projects. In this 30-minute talk, Drew Westrick will introduce the core concepts, highlight the powerful benefits, and provide a live demo showing just how easy it is to control hardware using Python code. **7:45 - 8:15pm:** Q&A and Discussion **8:15 - 8:30pm:** Door Prizes **8:30 - 9pm:** Networking Guests are welcome to attend, but please have each person RSVP on their own Meetup account.
