About this Event
Hello lovers! Anshita Koul Comedy brings to you another edition of the brand new comedy night at the Queer heart of Berlin Tipsy Bear, where some of Berlin's finest, international and hilarious BIPOC and Queer gems will take the stage to make you laugh. The event is open to everyone, only the lineup is BIPOC Queer, so bring your lovers, queers and allies.
This comedy night is an intersectional attempt by a Queer POC producer herself to pass the mic & expand the vibrant, diverse international comedy scene in Berlin even further and create a safe, inclusive, accessible and a fun stage for BIPOC and/or Queer artists with different comedy styles. It is also a space to experiment and play with different genres of comedy like - musical comedy, improv comedy, storytelling comedy, sketch comedy, satire and standup comedy to name a few.
As BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, Person of Color) and Queer artists, we often use humour to cope with the inequality and inequity in this world, and we are excellent at it but we don't want to be paid in 'good vibes' or 'thoughts & prayers' anymore simple because grocery stores don't work on that business model yet.

HEADLINER - Miky Burch
Miky Burch is a comedian and writer from Detroit.

She has performed all over Europe, the US and Canada and is the founder of the Cunnilingus Show, a monthly queer comedy game show held at Boom Chicago in Amsterdam.
The event is hosted and produced by internationally touring independent standup comedian Anshita Koul from India. Anshita made her debut in the standup world from the Indian reality TV show Queens of Comedy 2017, which was also available on Netflix but only for ~2 years for which she is eternally grateful because no comedian wants their first time on stage to be aired on Netflix. They recently made it to the ‘One to Watch’ list at Funny Women Stage Awards 2021 and is also a finalist at Funny Women Stage Awards 2022 in the UK.
She is the founder of Comedy Bazaar Berlin, a monthly comedy & storytelling night in Berlin and is the co-founder of Clit Comedy Club and one of the founders and organisers of Festrogen, the first ever female & queer centric comedy festival in Luxembourg. She is currently on tour with her solo debut comedy hour Little Too Much and her double bill show The Clitoris Act with comedian Mari Volar.
36, Indian, Queer, Married, does not want a child and is a standup comedian by profession– Anshita is a poster child for everything Patriarchy hates, but don’t worry kids, she hates it back way more.
