What a few students have said about Chris’s Comedy Class

.

Chris’ workshop was both theoretically and practically helpful.  He was also very down to earth and approachable. It was a huge psychological boost. Well worth the time and money.  - Paula Howley

.

Chris’ workshop was a great way to gain some experience and a safe place to get comfortable on stage.  I would highly recommend this workshop to anyone who wants to try their hand at stand-up.   –   Jon Van Dyck

.

a great opportunity to make funny, get feedback, excercise material, brainstorm, listen, critique, and seperate the wheat from the chaff, get inspired, get motivated, get started and get involved.  thanks chris for creating a safe stage.  - Stephanie Doucette

I got more practical, useful information about stand-up comedy in a few hours than I had figured out on my own in my entire life. In short, I got more useful stuff out of this 6 hour class than I got out of any technical and business seminar during my 21 year career in the data communications field.  And those seminars cost $200-$600 per day. And I left the class juiced up to get started. I can’t say that about those other seminars. – Darrel Duckworth
