Stand-Up Comedy Class

    The workshop runs for 8 weeks and covers all aspects of stand-up. Students perform every week in a workshop environment, developing material and stage presence, all under the watchful eye of the instructor. Each student gets individual attention in order to guarantee the growth of the comic as an individual. There are specific classes on writing and business as well to make sure that the student is equipped with the proper tools to continue beyond the workshop. At the end of the 8 weeks, the students will perform in front of a live audience at Gotham Comedy Club and will receive a tape of their performance.

    This class is designed to work with each student at the level they are currently at, so if you're brand new to stand-up, or if you are stuck in a rut, this class can help you find your way to the next level.
