COMEDY LAB

As seen in the Wall Street Journal

Comedy Lab
Physical Improv, Character Creation & Comic Stage Combat

What do you get when you combine the imagination of an actor, the creativity of an improviser, and the physical comedy of a great performer? You get Comedy Lab!

Students use movement, voices, and imagination to create hilarious characters and stories through physical comedy, improvisation, and creative challenges. They’ll explore classic comic techniques like pratfalls, slips, tumbles, exaggerated reactions, and even the timeless banana-peel gag, while learning the basics of comic stage combat—all in a safe, playful, no-contact environment.

No script? No problem! Students take creative risks, build ensemble skills, and discover how their bodies, voices, and imaginations can turn an idea into a performance.
