If your friends and family have always told you, “you should be a stand-up comic”, or it has been a nagging desire of yours to be one, then here is a great opportunity to try it out.  The class size is small and Tom Riehl is a very positive and helpful instructor. You will be in class with like-minded people and have so much fun encouraging and helping one another with their final sets. Performing live in front of your friends and family on “Graduation” night will give you as sense of accomplishment and desire to learn more and improve on your natural sense of humor.

The Students of Comedy class was a great experience in helping people, interested in developing a stand up comedy program, to go forward to accomplish that goal….and to help them clear their bucket list.

Tom sets this class up just right. I have done several similar classes and this was the best primarily because of the comfortable environment Tom creates which allows participants to find their voice. It was also challenging and a blast at the same time. You instantly start writing your own work and get real stage time. Fantastic class!

I had a great time and learned a lot!  Thank you Tom for your expert guidance, encouragement and commitment to our success.  I also appreciate you making a special trip to support me at the open mic show.  You definitely went the extra mile!

For some time I’ve had all these observations and thoughts written down but was never sure how to craft them into something that might get a laugh. Having gone through the class I have a much better sense of that process now. I also really enjoyed the process of performing the material the way I imagined it in my head.

Tom was a great/supportive teacher who helped his students develop and showcase their comedy work. His class was a great learning experience and I would highly recommend it to those wishing to try stand-up comedy.
