Instructor: Trish Tyler

Always wanted to try stand-up comedy? Have a few jokes tucked away but need help turning them into a solid set? This six-week class is designed for beginners as well as comedians looking to refresh their material, sharpen their skills, or get back on stage.

Each week, we’ll focus on writing and developing original material while exploring different approaches to comedy, including personal stories, topical humor, evergreen jokes, sports, entertainment, and current events. You’ll learn joke structure, punchlines, timing, editing, stage presence, and how to find your unique comedic voice in a fun, supportive, and encouraging environment.

Through writing exercises, feedback, and performance opportunities in class, you’ll leave with stronger material and greater confidence behind the microphone.

The course culminates with the opportunity to perform your material during our Comedy Night. Interested students will receive a dedicated performance time slot to showcase the set they’ve developed throughout the course in front of a live audience.
