Dark humor (n.): humor marked by the use of usually morbid, ironic, grotesquely comic episodes

Are you the type of person that laughs when it’s completely inappropriate? Do jokes about pain make you chuckle? Are you the type of person who people avoid at parties because deep down inside you are bleak, morbid, and sad, and deal with that through an unusual sense of humor?

If you are: Welcome home.

If you aren’t: Get away while you still can.

Dark Mode is brought to you by the producers that brought you “The Berlin Offensive” and “Schindler’s Fist”. It’s a comedy show in English show that deals with things other shows and comics are usually ill equipped to handle, and you get to join in on the fun!

I am a test event! Ignore me!

Doors: 20:00 | Show: 20:30

📍Z-Bar, Bergstr. 2

Unclench. It’s the weekend.

Come wind down with a fancy cocktail, and a dangerously funny lineup of comedians doing longer, darker sets in a chill, cozy bar.


The Loose Stool is a long form open mic where experienced comedians work out their new material — from sharp tour sets to wild experiments. Expect 3–4 pro comics doing 10–15 minute sets, and sometimes we throw in a fresh face for a short, chaotic surprise.


🧠 Smart, dark, occasionally unhinged comedy

🎤 Professional comics (with the odd newbie twist)

🍸 Full bar + comfy seats = perfect Weekend vibes

🌚 Low lighting, good people, very bad ideas

💸 Pay what you want (bring cash or good vibes)


🕗 Doors at 20:00 | Show at 20:30 sharp


Your host:

NIR GOTTLEID (@thenireast)

Israeli comic. Berlin expat. Deeply disturbed.

Too ugly to date Germans, so now he does stand-up instead.

Known for shows like The Berlin Offensive, Schindler’s Fist, and The Revenge of the Jewdi — Nir is widely considered the darkest comic on Germany’s English scene. Mostly by himself.

DARK MODE COMEDY

Berlin’s longest‑running dark‑humour night in English, born from the legendary “The Berlin Offensive” (2017). For comics who don’t apologise and audiences who don’t pretend to be normal.


Smart. Savage. Uncomfortable. Since 2017 and still un‑cancelled.
