Family — the people we're born into, the ones we choose, the ones we can't get rid of, and the ones we wish we'd held onto longer.
On May 29th, eight people step up to share a true story from their own life — no notes, no script, just the real thing.
How it works: Eight storytellers are drawn at random from a hat. Each has five to seven minutes — no notes, no props — just a true, personal story. Live music carries the night between stories. At the end, the audience votes for the story that moved them most. Four stories. A short break. Four more. Two hours that tend to stay with you.
After 90+ shows and over 1,000 stories across Germany, THE bEAR keeps bringing together locals, expats, and internationals for evenings like this one.
🎙 Host: Deepanker Dua
🎶 Music: To be confirmed
Language note: Hosted in English. Stories in both English and German — roughly half and half. You don't need to understand every word to feel a story. Every voice is welcome here, whatever language it comes in.
🎤 Do you have a story to tell? A 5–7 minute true story about family — something you lived, something you've been carrying, something you've never quite said out loud? First-time storytellers are especially welcome. 📩 Write to: [email protected]
✨ New to THE bEAR? You're in for something rare.
✨ A returning friend? You already know what it feels like when a stranger's truth lands in your chest.
Come early. Grab a drink. Find your seat.
The stories begin at 7pm. And anything can happen.
Because if you've got a story, we've got a stage.
