Comedy Lab: Stand Up

Get ready to set your inner comic free.

Our 10-week Stand-Up Comedy Lab will help you find your comedic voice and hone your writing and performance skills. You will be working with course leader and iconic comedian Sikisa, as well as other guest artists, to create your own 5-minute set which you will perform in front of a live and supportive audience at the end of term.

The Comedy Lab: Stand Up group meet weekly on Saturdays, with a public sharing at the end which will take place on a Monday evening at our Dean Street venue. We ask that participants commit to attending all 10 weeks.
