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.

I have been producing comedy shows in Orange County for the past 10 years and I love going to the Students of Stand-Up graduation showcases. Many times I have found Tom’s students ready and prepared to perform, and I have booked several of them for my show at the Irvine Improv. As of today I am yet to be disappointed!

I’m SO thankful for the opportunity to learn and perform. Most of all, I’m grateful for the privilege to know all the performers, learn from them and especially to Tom for his wise guidance and advice.

It was a BLAST!!!! The class, the show, getting to know everyone a bit… thank you all for the comments and supportive suggestions along the way.

Thank you so much for a great class! It was a great experience. I appreciated all your help, feedback and instruction.

The handouts were textbook quality – I was amazed at the quality and depth of information on each sheet. Also the freedom to perform TBD minutes for the graduation showcase (I was looking at another class and they provided only 6 minutes max) along with a video copy of the set.

The whole class was a great experience and something that’ll be permanently embedded in me! Thank you for a great 6 weeks there Tom!
