After a string of sold-out shows in Berlin, Time to Shine, the city’s kinkiest night of comedy and confessions, is hitting Hamburg and Prague.

You’ll be in the safe (and kinky) hands of two award-winning comedians, L’aDios and Terry Saunders, bringing over 20 years of London and NYC stand-up to Berlin. Alongside Nameless Gimp and some special guest performers, they’ll lead you through a night of laughter, latex and liberation.

Time to Shine isn’t just a show, it’s a place where kinksters, sex workers, and fetishists gather to laugh, gasp and sweat. And if that’s not enough, the Confessions Demon will be on hand to collect your darkest secrets.

Whether you arrive solo, entwined with a partner, or in full pleasure posse mode, this is your chance to shine. Adorn yourself in the sleekest latex, the most luxurious leather, or whatever ignites the fire within you. This is a space where self-expression is celebrated, where every story is told with raw honesty and humor.

Kink shouldn’t be a punchline, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be funny.
