The Joke Lab: Workshop Your Stand-Up Comedy Material
Monthly workshops for new comedians
Bring your jokes, stories, half-finished ideas, or even a blank page.
You'll workshop material with other comedians, receive feedback, test new ideas, and leave with practical ways to strengthen your set.
This is not a performance night and it's not an open mic. The focus is on development, experimentation and getting better.
Timings: Monthly at 6:30pm-9pm at The Abercrombie, close to Central Station. Check out the Eventbrite ticket listing for the dates.
Early bird tickets are $45.

Graduates of stand-up comedy courses
Newcomers to comedy who are preparing for their next gig
Experienced comedians developing new material
Anyone looking for structured feedback on their comedy
