Next to rehearsing for our shows we always organize a few social events thru the year.
– Pub-Quiz
– X-Mas revue (open mic night)

The pub quiz is a fun and often lively trivia competition, where teams of people compete by answering a series of questions across a variety of topics. It’s a popular social event in many countries, especially in the UK, and it’s known for mixing friendly rivalry with a few drinks and plenty of laughs.
Here’s what a typical pub quiz looks like:
Teams: People usually form teams of 2–6 players.
Quizmaster: One person (sometimes the bartender or a hired host) asks the questions, keeps score, and adds some personality to the event.
Answer Sheets: Teams write down their answers rather than shouting them out.
An open mic night is a casual, come-one-come-all event where anyone—regardless of experience—can get up on stage and perform. It’s a mix of raw talent, experimentation, community vibes, and surprise performances.
Mic and a stage
Sign-up a few weeks upfront
Host or MC keeps things running smoothly, introduces acts, and fills in dead time with jokes or announcements
Expect a diverse lineup. Common performances include:
Live music – solo singers, acoustic guitarists, duos, small bands
Stand-up comedy – from newbies testing jokes to seasoned comics polishing material
Spoken word poetry or storytelling
Improv or skits
Occasionally dance, magic, or anything else someone feels bold enough to try
