Get ready to think fast, crack jokes, and bring the laughs! Art Camp 504’s Teen Comedy Club is a high-energy, interactive class where young performers can explore the world of stand-up and improv comedy. Whether they’re natural jokesters or just curious about trying something new, this class is designed to help students build confidence, sharpen their wit, and find their unique comedic voice—no experience required!
All students need to bring is an open mind, a sense of adventure, and a notebook to capture their inevitable strokes of comedic genius. Through engaging exercises, students will learn the essentials of joke writing, comedic timing, improvisation, and stage presence—all while having an absolute blast! By the end of the course, they’ll leave with a solid grasp of comedy fundamentals and the confidence to apply humor in any creative field—whether it's acting, writing, public speaking, or just making their friends laugh.
