The relaxed setting, and having the opportunity to unwind and share before digging in each week was great. It helped the process to get to know each other, to feel safe and I think it enhanced the process. The materials were comprehensive and the worksheets a fun tool to open up our creativity and get ideas flowing.
This was a life changer! Even if I never get up on stage again (although I REALLY want to) it was a growth experience like few others. Tom is a natural teacher with the perfect combination of patience, encouragement and the ability to critique while keeping even the most fragile of us (who shall remain nameless…) intact. He’s funny as hell too!

The chance to practice in front of others in a friendly, supportive atmosphere, and then get helpful feedback, along with the amazing opportunity for a “real-life” performance at the end. Thanks for a fun and helpful class!

For some time I’ve had all these observations and thoughts written down but was never sure how to craft them into something that might get a laugh. Having gone through the class I have a much better sense of that process now. I also really enjoyed the process of performing the material the way I imagined it in my head.

Remarkable. Truly eye-opening experience makes the vast and wonderful world of stand up comedy less like mysterious.

It was a BLAST!!!!  The class, the show, getting to know everyone a bit… thank you all for the comments and supportive suggestions along the way.

I LOVED the collaboration effort – really helped tighten my set.
