Course Description:
Whether you have a pet peeve or an absurd story to tell, the OC Crazies can help you fashion that information into a funny bit. The Crazies welcomes first-timers to its stand-up classes–those who have always had a passion for trying this comedic art form, but were too shy to try it. We also welcome those who have been performing their routines for some time, but who need new material and a stronger delivery style. Sessions are three hours once a week for 6 weeks. We finish off the series with a stand-up show before a live audience of friends and family.
WHAT STUDENTS LEARN:
- How to find your comedic “voice.”
- How to identify what makes humor humorous.
- How to learn from the well-known, seasoned pros.
- How to write solid and unique material.
- How to select your style and brand.
- How to deliver each set with confidence and punch.
We take only 4-6 students in our classes in order for each student to get maximum stage time as they learn. Our stand-up comedy classes focus on delivery and content, while the sketch comedy classes zero in on an eight-step fast and funny formula for writing sound material.

Take your standup routine to the next level with this Crazie class! Learn to punch up your set–both content and delivery, though emphasis is in pushing your brand and unique style and making sure every line you deliver packs a punch!! This Crazies course will challenge your creativity, generating new ideas to smooth out what you’ve already written or help you “stretch” and expand on what you already have. The class will also put heavy emphasis on your delivery, giving you techniques for a more sophisticated and hard-hitting delivery style. Lots of fun in this class while we also study the work of well-known comics.
StandUp Comedy Writer’s Lab: Saturday, September 12 – 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. (1 DAY CLASS)
Punch up, revamp, and upgrade your written material. Are your audiences laughing continuously throughout your set? Are you getting applause breaks and hearty applause at the end of your set? If “no” to these questions, learn how to tighten up your set with more hard-hitting content, a better joke build, and joke beats that will ensure stronger audience response as you cap off your set. Class size limited. Tuition: $125
StandUp Comedy Delivery Technique: Saturday, October 3 – 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. (1 DAY CLASS)
