STAND-UP CLASSES
Stand-up is the most recognizable form of performance-based comedy. Being successful, be it for fun or for a career, starts with learning to write your material, and then performing your set. Keep your skills sharp through workshops and shows like Open Mic.
Please visit our Student Resources page for more information about classes and enrollment.
Unless otherwise noted, all core classes meet at the Comedy Spot Training Center, at 915 T Street in Sacramento.
