Class: Introduction to Stand Up
Introduction To Stand Up

Do you make people laugh at dinner parties? Have all your friends told you you should "try stand up comedy" but you just can't pull the trigger? It's time to dive into INTRO TO STAND UP! This class will focus on confidence building activities, joke-writing structure, and everything you need to tackle the stage for the first (and not last!) time! Join comedian and author Mimi Hayes in unique lessons on the foundations of funny and gather individualized tools to bring the jokes right out of you.

Students will walk away with comedy writing tools, personalized joke feedback, and will write and practice their first "Tight 5" to take to a future open mic.
