The Kee News — News-Based Comedy Show

December is the time to look back at the year and ask one important question: was any of that really necessary?

2026 has given us enough political scandals, cultural disasters and bizarre headlines to last a lifetime. Unfortunately, the news doesn't take Christmas holidays. So before the year ends, let's get together and laugh at it.

Join us on December 5 at The Wall in Berlin for The Kee News — a smart, funny and slightly chaotic news-based comedy show where comedians turn headlines, politics, personal drama and global madness into stand-up.

This is not just a regular comedy showcase. Our comedians bring their own takes on politics, pop culture, Berlin life, expat chaos and everything weird happening in the world. Then you get involved: write down a piece of news that matters to you, and we'll discuss it live on stage.

It can be a government scandal, a celebrity meltdown, something ridiculous your boss said, or the fact that your family has already started fighting about Christmas. If it feels important to you, we can probably make it funny.

On stage:

Dima Watermelon — a Ukrainian comedian who has performed in more than 20 countries, including at the Edinburgh Fringe, London's Comedy Store and New York's Gotham Comedy Club. His comedy mixes deadpan absurdity, social commentary and the strange experience of being Ukrainian, European and somehow neither.

Eman Khallouf — a Jordanian comedian with Palestinian and Turkish roots, bringing sharp, unapologetically personal comedy about cultural identity, family expectations, relationships and the absurdities of starting a new life in Germany. She has performed since 2017 and created her own solo show, Fake Arab Energy.

Ludwig Benecke — a Swiss-German comedian who has performed at the Edinburgh Fringe, opened for Victor Patrascan and Rory Scovel, and appeared on German television. With an engineer's analytical mind and a comedian's questionable life choices, he finds absurdity in culture, identity and everyday behaviour.

The Kee — host of the show, comedian with 15 years of experience, creator of a YouTube late-night show, arrested for jokes in Russia and now making comedy in Berlin.
