About this Event

Come and watch the students of Standup Seminary showcase their 5 minute standup sets!

Standup Seminary is a beginners foundation course that strives to give prospective performers the confidence and skills they need to begin a career in stand-up comedy. Students will spend five weeks in a supportive environment while learning the fundamentals necessary to write and perform stand-up.

The 5 week course is founded on the comedy principles of the critically acclaimed Lincoln Lodge, a national leader in cultivating and developing new comedy talent.


To support the nonprofit mission of the Lincoln Lodge, we set a $5 suggested donation for admission to the grad shows!
