WRITER'S WORKSHOP
Whether you’re a “newbie” who has never been on stage before, or a comedian who just wants to add “more funny” to your set, our 6-week workshops offer something for everyone.
Stand-up Comedy 101 focuses on those new to stand-up comedy who have limited or no prior stand-up experience. The Stand-up Comedy Writer’s Workshop is for those who’ve been on stage a few times and are looking to take their material to the next level, focusing on writing and fine tuning new and existing material.

It’s great to be with people and express your comedic viewpoints, everyone there feels like secondhand family by the second week. The criticism is valid and doesn’t go overboard, you also get an instructor who is very down to earth and is extremely helpful at wanting you to perform your best. Overall I would give this class a 10/10 every time.

I was a “Big Baby” about public speaking, let alone a comedy routine in front of strangers but Tom lead a group of comics & myself (I’m not funny) in creating a routine that “Rocked the House.” It was stressful but what an experience – a life changing exciting – check that “Life’s Bucket List” box, experience. Thank you Tom and new friends!!!

A great sense of community. No one felt like they wanted to outshine everyone else. It was very much about the work. Tom was so good at making suggestions based on the work you would bring in. An overall great creative environment.

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’ve taken it seven times. Class sucks.

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!
