Question 1

Do I need any prior stand‑up experience?

Accepted Answer

No. The workshop is designed for complete beginners as well as comics with some stage time who want to strengthen their fundamentals.

Question 2

Do I have to attend all six weeks?

Accepted Answer

Yes — unless you’ve communicated otherwise with the organizer. Each week builds on the last, and missing sessions will make it harder to keep up.

What if I have to miss a class?

Accepted Answer

Just let the organizer know in advance. We can share the homework and class notes so you don’t fall behind.

Question 4

Is the Week 7 Tight‑5 Showcase mandatory?

Accepted Answer

No — it’s optional. But it’s a great chance to perform a polished set in a supportive room, and most students choose to participate.

What happens in each class?

Accepted Answer

- A short homework review
- A focused lesson on that week’s topic
- Guided writing or performance exercises
- Group feedback

Will I get stage time?

Question 7

How many students will be in the workshop?

What should I bring?

Is there homework?
