At Flappers University we believe that comedy is truly an art-form, a combination of raw talent and technique. Talent can be lost without technique, so we first teach joke structure and the basic language of comedy. We also believe that what makes a great comedian is being personal and authentic and, perhaps, a rule-breaker, so we provide a safe and fun environment where you can be just that: authentic, inspired and successful. Whether you are already a working comedian or looking to make it your profession, or simply need help with that next presentation or just want to come and have fun, we can help you find the path to funny.
Emcee Skills, the business of comedy, marketing and promoting stand up comedy, producing Live comedy events, breaking into the college market, riffing, tagging, joke writing, finding your voice, creating character, improv and sketch, working the crowd, understanding your audience, character development, and personalizing your material are all techniques we work on. Come and join us for some laughs.
