WRITER'S WORKSHOP
WRITER'S WORKSHOP
Whether you’re a “newbie” who has never been on stage before, or a comedian who just wants to add “more funny” to your set, our 6-week workshops offer something for everyone.
Stand-up Comedy 101 focuses on those new to stand-up comedy who have limited or no prior stand-up experience. The Stand-up Comedy Writer’s Workshop is for those who’ve been on stage a few times and are looking to take their material to the next level, focusing on writing and fine tuning new and existing material.

What a great experience! Write your own stuff, workshop it and perform it live? Great! The classes are informative and, most of all, fun! The people you work with are all cheering for you to be your best. I can’t wait to take the next class. Thanks Tom!

I’m SO thankful for the opportunity to learn and perform. Most of all, I’m grateful for the privilege to know all the performers, learn from them and especially to Tom for his wise guidance and advice.

The Workshop is very exciting and fun. Tom, my instructor, is such an amazing gentleman. He is always looking for ways to help the students, which impressed me. There is never a discouraging word or attitude from Tom. Because of Tom, I want/wanted to become better and better. During my lifetime, I have had many instructors for many different subjects and I must say, in all honesty, Tom is the best !!!!
The atmosphere of the workshop was wonderful. All of the students participated and also, helped each other to better their set. I cannot say enough about Tom and his workshop. This has not only been a great experience, but a very fruitful one !!

That our instructor, Tom Riehl, created a comfortable, safe, relaxed, & fun environment for us students new to stand-up comedy to be able to express ourselves freely, be true to ourselves, be confident in our writing & presentation. I would recommend this Class to anyone that has had even a slight interest in doing Stand-up Comedy or even for someone who just needs help with Public Speaking. I’m looking forward to taking the Comedy Writer’s Workshop.

I’ve taken it seven times. Class sucks.

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