Ready to take your stand-up to the next level? Second City’s Stand-Up Lab gives you the space and support to sharpen your joke writing and performance skills. In every class, you’ll have dedicated time to write and test your jokes, while receiving personalized feedback and assignments based on your strengths and goals.
Each teacher brings a unique perspective to the Stand-Up Lab, so you’re welcome to return again and again to develop new material and gain different insights. You’ll also have the chance to test your material at Second City’s open mics, and by the end of the term, you’ll perform in a showcase to put all your hard work on display.
Prerequisite: You must have completed Stand-Up 1 or have one year of stand-up experience.
This course culminates in a final performance which happens outside of class time. This class’s show is scheduled for Sunday, April 27, 2025 (dates subject to change).
Please note that this class will take place entirely online. You will be emailed a unique link for video conferencing the day of your class.
