Triple Goddess Birthday Bash

come out to join us as we dance and share stories of reclamation and shame removal

Exposed TIMETOSHINE
EXPOSED delves into what lies beneath when we shed the masks we wear.
This new Time to Shine show is a voyage into the heart of kink, queer, and fetish communities, telling stories of vulnerability, strength, and liberation.
Whether you’re stepping out solo, with a partner, or surrounded by your pleasure posse, we give you a space to embrace your most authentic self. Dress in latex, leather, or whatever makes you feel unstoppable.
You’ll be in the safe (and kinky) hands of two award-winning comedians, L'aDios and Terry Saunders, bringing over 20 years of London and NYC stand-up scenes to Berlin.
Joining them this time is Tilly Poison, a performer and sex worker celebrating 15 years in the industry. She brings fetish, freak and stories of her life as a Dominatrix to the stage.
Time to Shine isn’t just a show—it’s a sanctuary for those who live beyond the norm. It’s where kinksters, sex workers, and fetishists gather to misbehave, explore, and find liberation—all with a playful wink.
We’re not just talking about it; we’re living it, laughing, and maybe even blushing a bit.
Kink shouldn't be a punchline—but that doesn’t mean it can’t be funny.

Petty Slam - A Poetry Competition celebrating the little revenges in life
The Petty Slam is a three-round poetry slam. Judged by you, it's audience!
Poets performing at our May event are:
Kevin Ahn Kwang Soo Groen
Hunter S Johnson
Bard Wildly
jarral boyd
Wszebor
L’aDios
Turbo
Doors at 1900
Show starts exactly at 1930
In each round competitors will face off with their pettiest stories (bad landlords, people who cycle on the footpath, the housemate who eats everyones food) and their lust for revenge.
Why are we doing it? See in 2020 our host was evicted illegally in the middle of a pandemic, and the person withheld half of the kaution. Now we are fighting pack with poetry showcases. That's what I call petty!
This event will be part of a series that will continue until the kaution is replaced.
Petty Slam English-hosted but anything can happen on our stage. Our performers come from Berlin, Europe and outside of Europe (can you imagine? Wow!)
The only thing you can be sure of is there will be no "punching down" Our event is a platform for little revenges that are fun and playful. Petty Slam is not a space for hate speech, racism, sex work phobia, or bigotry of any kind.
Walk the line of common decency and buy yourself a ticket to this ludicrous and exciting spoken word performance showcase with some of the best in the city!
See you there!

From there, its been three and a half years that she’s lit up stages in Delhi, Munich, and Krakow, blending her sharp wit with cross-cultural punchlines. Now based in Leipzig, Ishi is the creator of “Unfenced Comedy Show”, the city’s go-to English open mic, where comedy doesn't have any boundaries.

Smart, versatile, and unapologetically bold, Ishi delivers a comedy experience that leaves audiences laughing long after the punchline.”
