Have you ever thought of trying standup comedy? Now is your chance! Couch to Mic is a performance-based educational experience. Participants spend four weeks – in person, with other humans – writing, rehearsing and performing their own, original 5-ish minutes of comedy at the St. Lawrence Arts Center in Portland.
The program consists of four classes and one performance (featuring you) for $150. Classes will be held at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 26, Tuesday, Nov. 2, Sunday, Nov. 9, and Sunday, Nov. 14. The performance will be held at 7 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 30.
Students will be coached and guided by Stephanie Lazenby in a supportive and fun environment, where each person can discover and amplify their own comedic voice, culminating in an exciting, live show. Couch to Mic is an opportunity to take moments from your life and transform them into an empowering comedy experience.
