Have you always wanted to try stand-up comedy but didn’t know where to start? Or are you a newer comic ready to sharpen your skills and build a brand-new set?
In this fun, supportive, and high-energy 6-week course, you’ll be introduced to the core fundamentals of stand-up comedy—joke writing, stage presence, mic technique, and developing your comedic voice. Each week combines writing exercises, live feedback, and performance practice to help you shape and refine a 5–10 minute set.
The course culminates in a live student showcase, where you’ll take the stage and perform your set in front of an audience.
Whether you’re taking the mic for the first time or looking to reboot your material with new direction, this course is your chance to dive in, level up, and get laughs.
