THE BEAR Berlin presents Under Construction
Nothing finished. Nothing figured out. And somehow… everything matters.
UNDER CONSTRUCTION is a live storytelling night about the messy middle — the moments when plans fall apart, repairs don’t quite work, and becoming yourself takes longer than expected.
These are true, personal stories of rebuilding, reinvention, and lives held together with metaphorical duct tape. Stories about starting over, getting stuck, and realizing that being unfinished might be exactly where the magic lives.
If you’ve ever thought “I should be further along by now,” this night is for you.
Come listen. Come share. Come exactly as you are — under construction.
