Free Stand-Up Comedy Class (+ Comedy show afterwards)
The Bank, 324 King St, Newtown, NS, AUJoin us for a FREE stand-up comedy class, followed by Sydney's BEST STAND UP COMEDY SHOW!
Meet new people, laugh, and have a lot of fun!!
At the FREE stand up comedy class we will go through a simple joke-writing technique and you will write your own jokes!
To attend, please GET YOUR FREE TICKET (HERE!!) VIA EVENTBRITE TO THIS CLASS.
This is a chilled, warm and fun class - perfect for the absolute beginner. This isn't a class where people get on the microphone - instead you will be seated share your jokes in pairs or small groups.
You'll be able to showcase your wit and humour, while learning something new about yourself and others too!
This event is advertised across numerous platforms - we usually have about 20-40 people who attend this event each week.
Everyone in the class will gather at our 'singles and mingles' table, where our comedy teacher will meet everyone.
The big red doors on King Street to our upstairs comedy class open at 6pm, and the class starts at 6:15pm. It ends at 7pm. You can also join us from 7pm if you don't want to go to the class.
You will have two options from 7pm:
- You can either continue to hang out with us and then watch the Sydney Stand-Up Comedy Championships (note: this is a paid show). Almost everyone does this!
- Or if you're not interested in comedy, you can head downstairs with people you've met at the MeetUp and continue hanging out.
