Default The 100 Proof Comedy Stand-Up Training Program!

ComedySportz Presents our Newest Class, The 100 Proof Comedy Stand-Up Training Program!

Have you ever dreamed of trying stand-up comedy but are just too scared? Is it a passion you are trying to figure out? ComedySportz is introducing a brand new class starting this August and it is the opportunity for you to finally give stand-up the ol' college try.

"Stand-up comedy can be one of the most intimidating activities that a person can pursue." says Jamie Campbell. "Many people are interested in trying stand-up comedy, but they don’t know where to begin. Our program is designed to provide a positive environment that will serve as an introduction to the world of stand-up comedy. If, after taking our first course, you decide that you might want to pursue a career in comedy, the next 2 levels are designed to challenge you, and help you find your voice as you begin your journey." Jamie Campbell has been doing stand-up for years and can offer some invaluable insight into the craft. The level 2 and 3 classes will be offered in the coming terms.

"Stand-up comedians aren’t made in classrooms." says Jamie. "They are made on-stage with hard work, dedication, and relentless persistence. We’re not going to turn you into a professional comedian. If that’s your goal, only you can put in the effort that it takes." This class offers you the chance to test things out, experiment with different bits, and just give it a try in a safe place. Everyone in our classes here at ComedySportz love testing what's funny, so the atmosphere always resembles that attitude.
Jamie's plan for the class is simple, "Our goal is to give you the tools to take your first steps into the world of stand-up comedy." Level 1 being offered next term not only offers great insight into the art of stand-up for beginners, but it is taught by some truly talented stand-up comedians who can show you the ropes.

Our instructors:
Jamie Campbell, Sherman Edwards, and Kelsie Huff

LEVEL 1
prerequisites: NONE
recommended for: Those without any experience doing stand-up comedy and newer performers who have been doing stand-up for less than 2 years.

This course will serve as an introduction to the world of stand-up comedy. You don’t have to decide to pursue comedy as a career before taking this course. You just have to decide that you’d like to give it a try! For some of you, this will be an exercise in facing your fears. For some of you, this might be the spark that lights a fire that continues for the rest of your life!
Next term begins on August 11th!

Stand-Up Level 1 classes next term:
DAY TIME INSTRUCTOR
Saturdays 3-5:50pm Jamie Campbell
Sundays 3-5:50pm Sherman Edwards
Wednesday 7-9:50pm Jamie Campbell

This is a brand new class being offered here at ComedySportz and is sure to fill up fast so do not miss out on this chance to either try out what you have always wanted to do, battle a big fear, or just work on your dream of comedy.
