Luke created the perfect environment to learn and grow: friendly, encouraging and rapidly progressing. Without the course I would never have gone on stage, by the end of it I was excited to do it -Sebastian Luke is a good teacher who gives constructive feedback all the time, and animates others to participate and give feedback as well. He made sure that it's an engaging environment and safe for everybody to try out themselves and new/different material - Thomas A great way to get your feet wet in the fascinating world of stand up comedy. Practical, but always with the necessary background, the lessons from Luke and the homework are really great in getting into a rhythm to train your comedy muscle. A great build-up towards a first 5-minute performance, or for some people with a couple of trials on the clock, a great tool for developing into a more complete comedian. - Wouter 'I would highly recommend the class. It is very useful to learn the main concepts of writing but to me the key was working together with other colleagues to share and learn about each one's set. That was what motivated me and push me throughout the class' - Pablo 'I highly recommend this course because it took me step by step to go beyond my limitations and emotionality. It will give you all the tools to do Stand-up, leaving it up to you whether you want to do it seriously or not.' -Enrico 'I loved Luke's Standup Bootcamp! It was super fun and pushed me out of my comfort zone. By the time we did the final show I felt confident going onstage and in my ability to make people laugh!' -Natalie 'The class is a great mix of theory, practice and just hanging out with new people who are curious about the same things. It was fun, casual, inquisitive and just a very gentle low pressure to be funny introduction into the world of comedy. Would recommend it to anyone who wants to understand the idea of what makes something funny better.' -Maria

Deaf Donkey Productions presents a staged reading performance of God of Carnage by Yasmina Reza. This multi-award winning drama pits two sets of parents against one another when an outburst of schoolyard violence leaves one of their sons injured. They meet cordially, at first, in an effort to resolve the situation. But cracks in the veneer of polite society appear almost immediately as the couples verbally spar while navigating their simmering rage. [TICKETS €5 - BUY HERE!](https://secretcomedyclubbarcelona.com/en/event/god-of-carnage-a-staged-reading/) God of Carnage lends itself wonderfully to the staged reading format, in which our four actors perform while reading from scripts on a bare stage. No props, no costumes, and no entrances or exits. Just pure, uncut acting, straight from the page to the stage in this engaging, intense war of words—or is it a battle for civilisation? With Alex Jacob, Daniela Parkes, Carlos Toca and Madeleine Tyler. Directed by Kurtis Bright. [TICKETS €5 - BUY HERE!](https://secretcomedyclubbarcelona.com/en/event/god-of-carnage-a-staged-reading/)

AI has made it easier to move fast, but not easier to know what matters. As design teams adopt AI into their workflows, the challenge is no longer just output. It is coherence: knowing what to automate, how to measure value and how to lead people through a shift that is changing expectations in real time. On 27 May, Greg Kozakiewicz joins us for a practical talk on design’s next competitive advantage. The session will look at the “60/40” ratio in AI-driven design work, and what it means for designers, design leaders, and teams trying to stay strategically relevant while everything gets faster. We’ll explore: * Why speed is no longer enough * What the “60/40” ratio means for modern design teams * How to measure design value beyond taste and output * How business thinking increase design’s influence * Where design systems fit in the AI era How to manage teams, expectations and ambiguity right now This is not a portfolio talk. It’s a practical session for designers who want to understand where the work is heading, how to stay useful and how to turn design into a clearer business advantage. Speaker Greg Kozakiewicz Design Director @Oracle, UX & AI Strategy Details 📍 BAU, Barcelona 🗓 27 May ⏰ 19:00, doors open at 18:30

In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod. **YouTube Link** TBD
