Stand Up Comedy For Beginners
Ages 17+ (advised)
Mondays 7.15pm – 9.15pm
Over six sessions this course will guide you through writing your first five minutes of material, culminating in a live comedy showcase for friends and family at the end of the course. Stand-Up Comedy for Beginners is for those who have never done stand-up before, as well as new comedians hoping to hone their five-minute act.
Our workshop sessions will help you uncover your unique comic voice, reveal the techniques, and exercises professional comedians use to generate jokes, and coach you in performance skills.
