One night only – get tickets now!

Ben Miller: Stand-up Science!

A show that’s equal measures hilarious, educational, and deeply personal. Scientist turned stand-up comedian Ben Miller takes you on a journey that explores everything from chairs to the thermodynamics with wit and humor that makes these topics both approachable and delightful. And you probably like that sort of thing, nerd.

Come see this show after its completely sold-out run at the 2022 Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

Ben Miller is an NYC-based comedian who has been working for the past seven years and in that time he’s performed at all the top clubs in the city such as Broadway Comedy Club, Stand Up NY, Dangerfield’s, Carolines, and The Stand. He was once ranked as the top roast battler in NYC. He also has a degree in Materials Science and Engineering from Columbia University. He’s worked with electron microscopes, been a teacher on a science bus, 3D printed cookies and diffused a few bar fights while on stage. His jokes are sharp and self-deprecating, and he was once called “one of NYC’s best pound-for-pound joke writers” which isn’t saying much considering how little he weighs. In 2023, he was an Artist in Residence at Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park, the first ever stand-up comedian selected by the National Parks Arts Foundation.

CAUSA PERDUTA: A Comedy from the BALKANS with LOVE

“Abandon hope all ye who enter here” and he was actually talking about Hell, but we all know that if there’s a place without hope, especially for feeling normal or European, that place is definitely at the BALKANS.
By some mistake, however, Bulgaria and Romania tricked the EU in order to enter it – probably through corruption, I’m telling ya… because what are we,Balkans, without conspiracy theories?
Don’t believe me – try vaccinating us! I dare you!
As a true Balkan, Krissi aka uLTRa hate rules, because they try to dictate us what to do and we do only what we want to do. Пък.
So, uLTRa is a lot of things, just not the ones people wanted her to be, like a lawyer, or a doctor, or a professional baseball player – don’t ask me, ask her dad…
She grew up between American and Russian culture, so she hates both equally.
She wasn’t bullied as a child because you can’t bully traumatized people, it simply doesn’t work like that.
She was told she couldn’t do comedy, so she started working as a professional comedian, and of course it worked, because you NEVER TELL BALKANS what they can’t do.
Someone told her she couldn’t go to Ukraine during active war and do comedy and guess who went to the Ukraine did comedy?
And her show is going to be AMAZING because crazy people are always entertaining and her stories will shock you amaze you and you’ll probably learn some new immoral slightly (or very) criminal trick that will take you far in live or to jail but let’s hope for a German jail because they’re nice….
When: 13-APR 10PM
Where: Valentin Stüberl Neukölln // Donaustr. 112 // 100m from U Rathaus Neukölln
