Stand-Up Comedy Class

Comedyschools.com is a stand-up comedy workshop now in its twenty-fourth year in the Valley. Past students have gone on to become regulars on Saturday Night Live, long-term cast members on shows including The Walking Dead, and have appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Conan, HBO, and more.

Head Instructor Tony Vicich is a former touring stand-up comic who has appeared on Evening at the Improv, MTV ½ Hour Comedy Hour, The Showtime Comedy All Stars, and Comedy Central.

The workshops are open to everyone — not just aspiring comics — including CEOs, salespeople, and anyone looking for a new experience. Each round is 5 weeks / 10 classes long, held Mondays & Tuesdays, 7:30 PM–10 PM, and concludes with a Class Clowns Show at Tempe Improv. Free intro classes are held at the start of each round.
