What not to miss this semester!
Exercise your good humor in this supportive and hysterically funny workshop for men and women (yes, men are allowed). Participants discuss the elements of comedy, engage in fun writing exercises, and develop and practice their own unique standup material. Class culminates with the ultimate challenge—an optional live performance in FlynnSpace on July 22.


JOSIE LEAVITT worked as a stand-up comic in New
York City and has taught numerous comedy workshops to
high acclaim. She performs standup throughout New
England when not running her bookstore in Charlotte.
Our theater program emphasizes individual expression, creative choice, and FUN! Children’s classes build sequentially on the basics, while teens and adults can explore specific theater arts in greater depth (and shorter periods of time.) We keep class sizes small so everyone gets personal attention, and vary themes so that each semester challenges returning students as well as new ones. Performance opportunities let students try out their skills in front of supportive audiences of family and friends, and tours of the historic Flynn Theatre, discounts on world-class MainStage performances, and masterclasses with extraordinary visiting artists complement the strong core program.
