Dark Comedy Open Mic

Not for the faint of heart. With a reputation as being one of the most depraved, twisted and vile shows in the city, this night attracts stand-ups who want to try out new material on the darker side. You’ll hear gags not fit for anywhere else, so if you’re easily offended then stay at home.

YAAAS Queen!

On the second Thursday of every month, this comedy show tailored towards women and LGBTQIA+ darlings is produced by scene sweethearts Queen Bees Comedy. Whether it’s total beginners or comedy pros, one thing’s for sure: the lineup is always serving c*u*n*t.

Dirty Laundry Comedy

We’re all familiar with the term ‘overshare’, but airing your dirty laundry in public long predates social media. Produced and hosted by Tyrone Stallone, this is your weekly wash, where comedy does the spin cycle. The retro-themed bar sets the scene, offering a cosy, warm space to come clean and maybe leave a little lighter than you arrived.

Friday Funnies

Hosted by funny man Patrick Moore, this weekly show eases you into the weekend with jokes, japes and beers. With a classic, American-style stand-up vibe, each week boasts one of Berlin’s best local acts or touring comedians offering longer sets, while newbies handle the warming up.

It’s That Time Of the Month

Technically not stand-up, but It’s That Time Of the Month is bringing together five of Berlin’s most formidable funny women, this monthly improvised live talk show is a gloriously unserious daytime-evening hybrid, dispensing entirely unsolicited (but absolutely essential) life advice to anyone willing to listen. No topic is off-limits, and with improv at the helm, the conversation can veer absolutely anywhere.

Comedy Therapy – Problems Solved by Comedians

It’s been said that laughter is the best medicine, so why spend hundreds of euros on a shrink when you can find the solution to your existential crisis here? Hosted by Russian comedian Lena Stolby, who claims to know a thing or two about problems, the night aims to resolve life’s qualms with four comedians on hand to make light work of big topics.

That’s What She Said

Femmes to the front! This handpicked selection (also made by the Queen Bees) of Berlin’s funniest women is wild, ferocious and feisty. With revolving lineups every month, it’s an explicitly female take on life as we know it. Don’t worry – men are welcome, just not on stage.
