VERY NICE! Comedy Show – Dinara Kerey and Nya Yeanafehn (Work-in-Progress)

Stand-up comedy is not an easy path to pursue. Writing minute by minute for months and commuting from show to show every night to try five minutes on stage is a challenge. All of these experiences are the building blocks of a polished comedy hour that every comedian strives to create in their career. A Work-in-Progress show is a great opportunity for comedians to try longer sets and build a cohesive story. Come and be a part of our journey before Netflix calls us and offers way too little money for our precious jokes!

Some information about the comedians:

Dinara Kerey is a Kazakhstani comedian currently based in Berlin. Shaped by her experiences living in South Korea, the US, and Germany, Dinara’s comedy fearlessly delves into her heritage, trauma, and expat life. With a unique perspective and delivery, she humorously dissects the nuances of life as a foreigner, offering comedic insights on dating, cultural clashes, and everyday observations that everyone can relate to. Dinara has performed all over Europe and the United States, produced shows for Fringe Festival in Tallinn as well as opened shows for some big names in comedy.

PALMA PALACIOS | ICONIC BEHAVIOR (Comedy Special in Mitte)

Latina comedian Palma Palacios performs her debut comedy hour that is VERY MUCH just herself: dark, full bodied, and unapologetically silly.

After a sold out debut, Palma is ready to light up the stage once again with her solo show ICONIC BEHAVIOR.

From surviving a Latina tiger mom to bathing with strangers in Berlin, Palma’s life is an endless improv show filled with ‘yes and’, authenticity, and delusional positivity. Join Palma for a comedy hour that is very much just herself: dark, full bodied, and unapologetically silly, as she sheds stories of love, loss, and emotional masochism that have made her ICONIC.

Prepare for an evening of deadpan humor, occasional loudness, and anal.

Opening act: Bruno Mazzini @BrunoMazziniComedy
Hosted by Emin Afandi @afandi.emin

THIS SATURDAY, Sept 28th!
15€ online
20€ at the door

Here’s what some folks have to say about Palma:

“Palma’s a comedy natural. Her stage presence and wit make you feel like she has been doing comedy all her life.” – Lukas Schreiber

“Palma Palacios embodies iconic behavior. She brings you the kind of vibrant energy in spiritual quotes, not by ignoring the pain but by embracing it, and making it hilarious.” — Bruno Mazzini

“I love the timing of Palma’s jokes. Honestly amazing” – Cristina Escubos

“A rising comic star and master of deadpan, Palma Palacios is smashing stereotypes about queerness, brownness and love. Don’t miss her totally unique style on stages across Europe.” – Josh Leigh

Produced con amor y humor by @relachen_berlin, we love to laugh with you.
