THE bEAR Hamburg | Show #5 - LA FAMIGLIA : Stories from the hearth & heart
English + German
----------------------

Family - the people we were born into. The ones we chose. The ones who drove us crazy, saved us, embarrassed us, or disappeared. Whatever family means to you: there's a story here that'll hit close to home. On May 29th, eight people step up to the mic at Horner Freiheit and share something real from their own life. No notes. No script. No PowerPoint. Just a true story, told live.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Brave, intimate, human." - audience, THE bEAR Hamburg
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Moving to the bone." - audience, THE bEAR Hamburg
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Soul food." - audience, THE bEAR Hamburg

HOW IT WORKS

Eight storytellers are drawn at random from a hat. Each has 5-7 minutes - no notes, no props, just a true personal story. Live music holds the night between each story. 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.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Incredible stories. Didn't know what to expect - and it was truly great." - audience

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Better than Netflix 😉" - audience

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"I never wanna miss out on a Bear Night!!!" - audience
