ANDY ENGEL'S BEGINNER'S COMEDY CLASS WITH COMEDIAN KAREN BERGREEN STARTING AUGUST 8TH!
Learn why Manhattan Comedy School beats the competition
Faculty
Our faculty members are all active, successful headliners with thriving careers. No other comedy school can offer the same caliber of teachers, with credits including HBO and Comedy Central specials, not to mention recent David Letterman and Craig Ferguson appearances. Clearly, they don't have to teach—but they do for us. And the old cliché that they go the extra mile really applies here. They answer your e-mails, extend class time when you need it, give you personal attention—everything it takes to make sure you're ready to hit the stage after six weeks.
Supportive Comedy Community
Manhattan Comedy School offers our students much more than just a class. You'll also benefit from a supportive comedy community. That includes private open mics where you have the luxury of performing—and failing—in a safe and supportive environment. Refine and tweak your set with quality stage time during New Talent shows. And you can update your DVD, which many of our students use to get work when they're ready.
See Comedy for Free or at Huge Discounts
We offer our former students both free shows and huge discounts on weekend shows on a regular basis. Bring your friends and they'll receive the same discount. Many Friday and Saturday headliners at Gotham include the biggest names in comedy!
Free Workshops/Seminars
We offer occasional free workshops and seminars to our students to help you advance your career.
Testimonials
We are very proud to have the endorsements of comedians Lewis Black, a comedy legend, and Jim Gaffigan, a future comedy legend. Their testimonials speak for themselves.
Locations
Our classes are held in midtown; graduation shows are held on the stage at
at Gotham Comedy Club in New York City.
