## THE BEAR presents:

# **RECIPROCITY - *Stories of Give & Take***

### *“All flourishing is mutual.”*

— Robin Wall Kimmerer, author of *[The Serviceberry](https://www.thalia.de/shop/home/artikeldetails/A1071214941)*

**Saturday\, December 6 \| Nikolaus Night at Theater im Delphi**
What does it mean to give? What does it mean to receive? And what happens when those two don’t balance?

On this Nikolaus night, we explore stories of reciprocity, **the push and pull of human connection.**

Join us for an evening of **true, personal stories about generosity, imbalance, and the unexpected ways life gives back**.

**Eight storytellers** take the stage to share real moments of connection — the kind that make you laugh, cringe, reflect, and maybe even tear up a little.
Expect lively audience interaction, live music, and authentic connection with your fellow Berliners.

## 🎟️ **Come listen, feel, and celebrate the season of giving - one story at a time.**
