STANDUP & STORYTELLING WORKSHOP: ALL LEVELS
with Lisa Lampanelli

A 6-week Coaching Workshop

Learn from Lisa’s three decades of standup experience! In the class, Lisa will give all levels of students – from beginners to advanced – the keys to developing a standup comedy/storytelling performance. Whether you’re a complete novice, a mid-level student looking to turn their 5-minute routine into 10, or a seasoned pro, you will learn from Lisa’s expertise in every stage of development as a comedian or storyteller. She’ll also give participants an inside look at the ins and outs of show business and the comedy life, and give invaluable advice for offstage and onstage behavior. Plus participants will develop a brand-new set or story that they will perform during the final week’s showcase for a supportive group of friends, family and their very own fans!

5/15 - 6/26; No class 6/19
Wednesdays, 7:00pm-9:00pm
Tuition: $350

STRICTLY LIMITED TO 15 PARTICIPANTS!

About the instructor

LISA LAMPANELLI
With a career that spanned more than 30 years, Lisa Lampanelli was a constant on the comedy scene. With numerous tours, Grammy nominations, and national TV guest appearances and specials under her belt, she was everywhere comedy was. After having hit every possible career high – including sold-out shows at Radio City Music Hall and Carnegie Hall -- she announced her retirement from stand-up on the Howard Stern radio program in late 2018 and is now dedicating her life to coaching comedians, performing in storytelling shows and being a general overall bad-ass.

Having become known to U.S. audiences from appearances on the Comedy Central Roasts, the Howard Stern Show, and the “Tonight Show with Jay Leno,” Lisa became a household name when she raised $130,000 for the Gay Men’s Health Crisis during season 5 of NBC’s “Celebrity Apprentice.” After undergoing weight-loss surgery in 2013, Lampanelli was inspired to write the play, “Stuffed,” which enjoyed two off-Broadway runs in 2016 and 2017. The play was intended to motivate her fans to embrace self-love and self-acceptance. In turn, those same fans inspired Lisa to shed her old title of insult comic and dedicate herself to helping others through storytelling events and standup coaching.
