About event
🔥WHAT THE STARTUP is a brand new live comedy stageplay premiering on 10.12.2025!🔥
Set in Berlin, WHAT THE STARTUP takes place in an ill-equipped startup incubator. A small international team must find investment for a startup or face being sacked by their unhinged boss. Whilst trying to achieve this near impossible task, they decide that finding the boss true love would make everything better. Their fate becomes much worse as their six week deadline ticks down and they desperately turn to Berlin to save them...
What you can expect:
The highs and lows of startup life
The push and pull of online dating
The love and hate of Berlin
And much, much more!
With a stellar cast ready to take you from the coworking space to the techno club, and from the späti to the, well, another techno club, this new comedy will make you realise you are not alone in your daily Berlin challenges.
As the year nears its end, bring your friends, family, co-workers and even your manager along.
⏰ Doors at 19:00. Performance at 20:00.
📸 By attending, you are aware that the evening may be photographed and recorded on video, and all materials recorded may be used for our promotional material.
Performance in English (EN) and 18+ recommended (Berlin humour!)
