WHY SO SERIOUS? | Interactive Stand-Up Comedy Experience @TheComedyPub
# [GET TICKETS HERE!!!](https://www.eventbrite.at/e/why-so-serious-interactive-stand-up-comedy-experience-thecomedypub-tickets-1981787768564?aff=MeetUp)
An interactive English comedy show where the audience becomes part of the show. Games, confessions & bold stand-up — every Sunday in Vienna.
🎭 About the Show
Why So Serious? is Vienna’s boldest interactive stand-up comedy show — a weekly Sunday night where comedy happens with the audience, not in front of it.
This is not a passive sit-back-and-watch kind of night.
This is a show for people who want to laugh, react, participate, and experience comedy in real time.
Through crowd work, improvised formats, live tryouts, audience confessions, Q&A segments, and interactive games, the audience actively shapes every show. No scripts. No repeats. No safety net.
If you’re looking for traditional stand-up only — this might not be for you.
If you want comedy that feels alive, risky, and different every single week — welcome.
🎤 What Makes Why So Serious? Different
Interactive comedy formats built around the audience
Crowd work-heavy sets by professional comedians only
Live joke tryouts with real-time audience feedback
Games, challenges, and improvised moments
A safe space to test bold, smart, and absurd comedy ideas
Every show is unique — nothing is repeated
This is comedy magic happening in real time.

Repeat, research, and integrate what you’re currently learning — wherever that may be
This is not a class, and not a milonga.
It’s a space for mindful practice, curiosity, and experimentation.
There's plenty of room for those who want to practice navigation in ronda or something else on a fixed spot without disturbing each other's process.
You don’t need to attend my classes to join, the Focused Prácticas are open to all backgrounds.
**Here you can expect:**
A welcoming, respectful atmosphere
Space to focus without pressure
Supportive presence if questions arise
Freedom to choose what you want to work on
Socializing and exchanging feedback with others is welcome; consent and respecting each person’s process is the base.

Kick off your week with a laugh at **Funday**, the ultimate English-speaking Open Mic at **The Comedy Pub**! Here, seasoned comedians and brave newcomers take the stage to try out their best jokes, wildest stories, and most daring punchlines. From sharp one-liners to hilarious life stories, you never know what you’re going to get—but it’s always entertaining!
### 🤔 **What is an Open Mic?**
An **Open Mic** is the testing ground for comedians. It’s where pros fine-tune their new material, and fresh faces take their first step into the spotlight. It can be amazing…or a total mess—but that’s the beauty of it! The audience gets to witness comedy in its rawest form: unfiltered, unpredictable, and absolutely unique.
### 🍻 **The Comedy Pub – Vienna's Only Dedicated Stand-Up Comedy Club!**
Located in the heart of Vienna at **Kettenbrückengasse 7**, **The Comedy Pub** is the city’s premier destination for live English-speaking stand-up. With its cozy Irish pub atmosphere, a fantastic selection of drinks, and an intimate stage, it’s the perfect spot to enjoy a night of comedy. Our club is dedicated to bringing you the best laughs, week after week.
### 💡 **Why is it Free? (Donation-Based Event!)**
Comedy needs an audience—your laughter, your reactions, even your groans help comedians sharpen their jokes. That’s why entry is free, and donations are welcome. If you had a great time, show some love. If you didn’t…well, there’s always next week!
### 🎟️ **Audience Guidelines:**
To make sure everyone has a great time, here are a few things we ask:
* **Be on time:** We start right on schedule.
* **Follow the rules:** It’s really not that hard.
* **Laugh when it’s funny:** Your reactions shape the show.
* **Donate if you enjoyed it:** Show your appreciation for the laughs.
* **No heckling:** You will lose. Every time.
* **No talking during the show:** Respect the performers and your fellow audience members.
This isn’t your living room—it’s a privilege to be here. If you disrupt the show, the audience, or the comedians, you’re out. No refunds, no second chances. We’re here for good vibes and great comedy—don’t mess that up.

Humming Traditions: SODAI - Straw, Form & Wind
An immersive workshop for adults, quiet hands, patient minds, and those who enjoy the slow rhythm of creation.
🌿Limited spots. The group is limited to 8 people. You can secure your place by purchasing a ticket through the link:
https://doobeedoo-goodies.sumupstore.com/produkt/humming-traditions-sodai-straw-form-and-wind
🌿Date: 22nd of February
🌿Time: 15:00—17:00 (it might take longer, depending on group tempo)
🌿Location: DooBeeDoo Goodies Atelier (Märzstraße 86, 1150 Vienna)
Step into the gentle rhythm of creation and discover Sodai, traditional Lithuanian straw mobiles that once filled homes with balance, harmony, and quiet beauty. In this workshop, we will explore the geometry of air, learning how to prepare and string straw into delicate symmetrical forms that sway softly with every breeze. Piece by piece, your hands will follow the same patterns that generations before us used to invite order and peace into their homes.
You’ll learn the basic techniques of straw preparation, stringing, and construction, and experience how a simple natural material can transform into something light, precise, and full of meaning. Together, we’ll move through a calm, meditative process, each gesture connecting thought, breath, and creation in quiet balance.
By the end, you’ll leave not only with your own handmade Sodas, a timeless ornament carrying both heritage and your creative touch, but also with the knowledge, focus, and stillness that this ancient craft awakens. It feels less like finishing an object and more like completing a gentle ritual of patience and peace.
To keep the experience personal and attentive, the group will be small and intimate, space is limited, so that every participant can receive individual guidance and care.
This workshop invites you to slow down, focus, and reconnect — with your hands, your thoughts, and the quiet poetry of simple materials. No previous experience is needed, only patient hands, a calm mind, and an eye for quiet detail.
🌿🌿🌿
Humming Traditions is a series of creative workshops that explore the living, breathing essence of cultural practices. Each event invites participants to connect with ancient techniques, natural materials, and artistic expression in a hands-on, immersive experience.
The series celebrates the quiet resonance of tradition, the subtle vibrations, textures, and forms that have carried meaning through centuries. Whether through sound, movement, or craft, Humming Traditions is about experiencing culture as a living, dynamic, and tactile art form.
Each workshop stands on its own yet shares a common thread: creativity, mindfulness, and a connection to nature and heritage. Participants leave with newly learned skills, a calm mind, and a deeper appreciation for cultural artistry.
The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald
The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald’s third book, stands as the supreme achievement of his career. First published in 1925, this quintessential novel of the Jazz Age has been acclaimed by generations of readers. The story of the mysteriously wealthy Jay Gatsby and his love for the beautiful Daisy Buchanan, of lavish parties on Long Island at a time when The New York Times noted “gin was the national drink and sex the national obsession,” it is an exquisitely crafted tale of America in the 1920s.

Lachflash Comedy Open Mic – Dein Sonntag @TheComedyPub endet mit Lachen
**Deutschsprachiges Comedy Open Mic in Wien. Lachflash statt Tatort – der perfekte Sonntagabend mit neuen Comedians & freiem Eintritt.**
# [HOL DIR DEINE TICKETS HERE!!!](https://www.universe.com/events/lachflash-comedy-open-mic-dein-sonntag-thecomedypub-endet-mit-lachen-tickets-8QGW97?ref=MeetUp)
Sonntagabend und du überlegst, ob du dich mit Netflix aufs Sofa wirfst oder dich schon auf den Montag vorbereitest? Falsch gedacht! 😏 Wien hat jetzt eine bessere Antwort: **Lachflash Comedy Open Mic**. Jeden Sonntag um 18:00 wird *The Comedy Pub* zur Bühne für deutschsprachige Stand-up-Comedy – roh, echt, witzig, manchmal absurd und immer überraschend. Der perfekte Wochenend-Ausklang für alle, die nicht aufhören wollen zu lachen.
**Lachflash Comedy Open Mic** ist das große Finale des Wochenendes. Hier bekommst du einen wilden Mix aus **Newcomern**, die ihre ersten Schritte auf der Bühne machen, und **erfahrenen Comedians**, die neues Material ausprobieren. Manchmal entstehen hier Jokes, die in ein Jahr später in Specials oder Fernsehsendungen landen. Manchmal scheitert ein Gag glorreich – und genau das sorgt für die lautesten Lacher des Abends.
Mit **vielen Comedians pro Show** (oft mehr als 10!) erwartet dich ein abwechslungsreicher Abend:
* Überraschende neue Stimmen, die dich mit ganz frischem Humor überraschen
* Kreative Experimente, die kein Mainstream-Comedy-Club sich trauen würde
* Scharfe Pointen von erfahrenen Comedians, die genau wissen, wie man eine Crowd zum Toben bringt
Kein Sonntag gleicht dem anderen. Jede Show hat ein komplett neues Line-up – das macht **Lachflash** zu einer Serie, die man immer wieder besuchen kann.
Und das Beste: Hier ist das Publikum nicht nur dabei, sondern ein aktiver Teil des Abends. Deine Lacher, dein Applaus, dein Staunen – all das beeinflusst, wie die Comedians ihre Jokes entwickeln.
## 🤔 Was ist ein Open Mic?
Ein Open Mic ist das Herzstück der Stand-up-Szene. Es ist keine perfekt inszenierte Show – sondern ein Ort, an dem Comedy entsteht. Hier probieren Comedians ihre neuesten Texte aus, feilen am Timing, improvisieren mit dem Publikum und lernen, was funktioniert.
Das heißt:
* Manchmal knallt ein Joke sofort – und alle feiern.
* Manchmal floppt eine Pointe – und genau daraus wird ein unvergesslicher Moment.
* Immer aber ist es spannend, nahbar und authentisch.
Wenn du echte Comedy erleben willst – ohne Filter, ohne Drehbuch, ohne Sicherungsnetz – dann ist ein Open Mic genau dein Ding. Und **Lachflash Comedy Open Mic** ist Wiens neue Adresse dafür am Sonntag.
## 🍻 The Comedy Pub – Das Zuhause der Stand-up-Comedy in Wien
Die Show findet im **The Comedy Pub** (Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Wien) statt – Wiens erster und einziger echter Comedy-Club. Während andere Bars ab und zu Comedy hosten, ist das hier das Zentrum einer Szene.
Oben erwartet dich ein gemütlicher Irish Pub mit Drinks, Snacks und freundlicher Atmosphäre. Unten im Altbaukeller – oder im offenen Pub-Bereich – wird jede Woche Stand-up gespielt, getestet und gefeiert. Die Location ist bekannt für ihr **nahbares, internationales Publikum** und ihr warmes, intimes Ambiente.
Und das Beste: mit der U-Bahn-Station **Kettenbrückengasse (U4)** direkt vor der Tür bist du in wenigen Minuten mitten im Geschehen.
## 💡 Eintritt frei – Spenden willkommen
Comedy lebt von Community. Damit möglichst viele Menschen Stand-up erleben können, ist der Eintritt frei. Aber: Lachen ist wertvoll – und wenn du einen **Lachflash** hattest, dann zeig das! Am Ende der Show geht ein Hut rum, in den du geben kannst, was es dir wert war. Fair, direkt und die ehrlichste Form von Applaus.
## 🎟️ Regeln fürs Publikum
Damit die Show für alle ein Erlebnis wird, bitten wir dich um ein paar einfache Dinge:
* Sei pünktlich – die Türen öffnen 17:30, Showstart ist 18:00.
* Hör zu und respektiere die Bühne – Comedians geben hier alles.
* Lachen ist Pflicht – und zwar ohne Zurückhaltung!
* Kein Heckling – die Gags kommen von den Profis. 😉
* Spenden sind willkommen – support your local comedy!
## 🎉 Warum Sonntag?
Viele denken: Sonntagabend = Couch, Serien, früh ins Bett. Aber warum so trist? **Lachflash Comedy Open Mic** ist der perfekte Gegenentwurf: eine Show voller Energie, Lachen und Überraschungen – bevor der Montag wieder ernst wird.
* Es ist der **perfekte Wochenend-Ausklang** – Comedy statt Tatort!
* Ein Fixpunkt, der dich mit einem Lächeln in die Woche schickt.
* Ein Raum, in dem du neue Comedians entdeckst, die du sonst nie gesehen hättest.
* Und: die einzige regelmäßige deutsche Comedy-Show am Sonntag in Wien – im einzigen Comedy Club der Stadt.
Kurz gesagt: Sonntag gehört jetzt nicht mehr dem Montagsblues, sondern dem Lachflash.

Wirklich sehen, hören, fühlen – Wie geschärfte Wahrnehmung Nähe ermöglicht
### **,,Wirklich sehen, hören, fühlen – Wie geschärfte Wahrnehmung Nähe ermöglicht''**
**Workshop für Sinne, Selbsterkenntnis & Beziehungstiefe**
***
**Was, wenn echte Verbindung nicht durch Reden, sondern durch Wahrnehmen beginnt?**
Wie nah wir anderen kommen – in Partnerschaft, Freundschaft oder Familie – hängt oft davon ab, **wie klar und fein wir wahrnehmen können**: uns selbst, den anderen, die Situation.
In diesem Workshop schulen wir unsere Sinne – **sehen, hören, riechen, fühlen** – und erkennen, was zwischen Wahrnehmung und Reaktion liegt: unsere gelernten Muster, Schutzmechanismen und tiefen Bedürfnisse.
***
**Inhalte & Übungen**:
* Wie „Wahr“-nehmung funktioniert – und wie sie getäuscht werden kann
* Sehen, Hören, Riechen, Fühlen bewusst trainieren – mit alltagsnahen Übungen
* Schulz von Thun: Was höre ich wirklich, wenn jemand spricht?
* Virginia Satir: Welche Reaktionen schützen mich – und verhindern Nähe?
* Karen Horney & Bindungstheorie: Warum wir uns so schwer tun mit Kontakt
* Sinneserfahrungen mit Alltagsgegenständen (z. B. Kaffee, Stoffe, Düfte)
* Achtsame Selbstwahrnehmung & ehrlicher Austausch in Kleingruppen
***
**Warum das wichtig ist:**
Viele Kommunikationsprobleme und Beziehungskonflikte entstehen nicht durch bösen Willen – sondern durch **nicht wahrgenommene Signale**, alte Muster oder unbewusste Schutzreaktionen.
Wenn wir die Welt feiner spüren lernen, **werden wir echter, weicher, verbindlicher** – ohne uns zu verlieren.
***
**Für wen?**
Für Menschen, die sich selbst und andere besser verstehen wollen – nicht theoretisch, sondern **im Spüren, Erleben und im echten Kontakt**.
***
📍**Ort:** jeden Sonntag
🕖 **Zeit:** 11:00-14:30
☕ **Mit Sinnesimpulsen wie Kaffee & Duftübungen** Kaffee & kleine Snacks inklusive!
💶 **Beitrag:** 25€
📝 **Anmeldung:** über Meetup oder Emailanmeldung unter: orhanberatgueclue@gmail.com

Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit - Barret Blake
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
*Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit: From Intent to Implementation*
Spec-driven development flips the traditional workflow on its head: instead of code being the source of truth, the specification becomes the backbone of design, collaboration, and delivery. In this session, we’ll explore how GitHub Spec-Kit enables teams to treat specifications as first-class artifacts—living documents that drive architecture, implementation, and verification.
You’ll learn how Spec-Kit helps teams clearly express intent using structured, version-controlled specs that live alongside code. We’ll walk through a practical workflow that starts with defining system behavior and constraints, then progressively refines those specs into testable, automatable outcomes. Along the way, we’ll show how specs can reduce ambiguity, improve cross-functional collaboration, and make design decisions explicit before a single line of production code is written.
This talk will cover:
--What spec-driven development is (and what it isn’t)
--How GitHub Spec-Kit fits into modern developer workflows
--Using specs to align product, engineering, and AI-assisted development
--Real-world examples of turning specs into implementations with confidence
Whether you’re building greenfield systems, integrating AI into your stack, or trying to reduce costly rework, spec-driven development offers a scalable way to move faster without sacrificing clarity. Attendees will leave with concrete patterns and a clear mental model for adopting GitHub Spec-Kit in their own projects.

A Changed Mind, Columbus, Ohio
Always an overachiever, David Bayer didn't settle for being Number Two in just about anything. Whether a runaway entrepreneurial success as a teenager, the leading online director for Ducati with over $70 million in sales, or as an early mid-life crisis overachiever with at least three wildly self-destructive behavioral addictions, whatever David did, he did it wholeheartedly.
Not surprisingly then, when it came to facing his failures and determining his next course of action, David sought health and healing with the same full-strength effort he had previously used to bring about his own ruination. Seeking to learn from the best of the best, David's pursuit of tangible, practical, actual change from the mind and emotions, outward, brought a new passion--that of encouraging others to learn from his mistakes and to be able to strive after and achieve healing and success in their own lives.

From Stability to Stewardship
A Biblical & Practical Path to Financial Freedom
This is not just a money class.
This is a restoration space.
The I AM Worthy of Ownership™ Path is a 12-step, sister-centered journey for women who are ready to build financial stability without shame, fear, or pressure—and to do it in a way that honors both wisdom and the spirit.
Many women don’t struggle with money because they lack discipline or intelligence. They struggle because of unhealed experiences, survival patterns, and the quiet belief that they are “behind” or “disqualified.” This series gently challenges those beliefs while offering practical tools for peace, clarity, and long-term planning.
Together, we will talk honestly about:
Releasing shame and money anxiety
Building stability as a form of self-respect and spiritual discipline
Understanding money as a tool, not a source of worth
Managing debt with clarity instead of condemnation
Preparing for life’s unexpected moments without fear
Laying a calm foundation for future ownership and legacy
Each session blends practical financial education with reflection, conversation, and encouragement. There is no pressure to share personal numbers or experiences. You are welcome to speak, journal quietly, or simply listen.
This is not about hustle.
This is not about perfection.
This is about alignment, wisdom, and peace.
Who this series is for:
Women who are starting over or rebuilding
Women who want stability without stress
Women preparing for future ownership or housing decisions
Women who want their financial lives to reflect wholeness, not fear
No prior financial knowledge is required.
Come as you are. Bring a notebook.
Leave a little lighter than you arrived.
Light refreshments will be served along with 30 minutes of networking.
