Jerry's class put you on speaking terms with success in the world of comedy. He goes off the established, conventional way of thinking and communicating with a conversational approach to teaching skills and techniques that have been honed by 27 years of doing stand up, 8 years as a staff writer on...
Great comedy show in CA. They usually have around 5 comics and all have been top notch on the two times I've been there. Many of the comics hang out with the audience at the theater bar afterwards, and often invite the audience to hop over to another nearby bar after a bit. I'm definitely planning o...
This class was amazing! The day after the workshop ended I woke up with a smile on my face as I immediately started crafting jokes. What a great way to start the day! Much cheaper than a Prozac prescription! ;)
Jerry Corley's uncanny ability to create a safe environment in his standup classes where you can discover, experiment and grow your talent is beyond description. After thirty years of thirst for standup, I was able to go from zero to laughs at Flappers Comedy Club in just eight weeks. Finding someon...
What a fun night! The show is a blast, and hanging out with everyone after the show creates a great connection that makes you really appreciate the performers as people. Plan an extra hour after the show to hang out, listen to people play the piano, and meet new people.
This workshop is fantastic! I have been performing stand up for four years, and was a little skeptical. This was the best investment I have made in my career to date! I will never have writers block again. Thanks to this workshop I have the skills to kick start my creativity into high gear. I reall...
Great, diverse line up! Great format and really sincere humor. I was laughing the entire time. The performers on the show also spend time hanging out afterwards and chatting. We had a great time and will definitely be going back!
So much fun! The comedians on the show are super funny. The hosts are great and even invite you out to a local bar down the street to hang out. Makes for a very fun night!
Saw one of my dear friends graduate. I have to tell you, this was one of the better comedy shows I have seen in a a while and these guys were all new. The reason: everyone had there own very intense point of view so wonderful to see these days. Everyone had great structure very funny act outs and t...
Paid for Private Lessons, over the phone. $120 per hour. Paid for 2 hours, got 1 hour 15 minutes, after that..."the Joke doctor" wouldn't schedule a follow up time for my remaining 45 minutes. I called & texted multiple times, no response. I currently make $24 per hour, that's 4 hours of work I'll n...
Jerry is amazing! He has years of experience as a working comedian and a writer for the Tonight Show, who better to teach the art of stand up? He is not only a great teacher but he is a very kind person. He cares about his students and wants you to succeed. Do yourself and your career a favor, and t...
Highly recommend! Everyone can benefit whether you want to become a standup, comedy writer, or just want to feel more confident sprinkling humor into your conversations
As with most creative endeavors, we often believe that there isn't a method available and that we have to struggle to find thos...
This is a nice hidden gem for aspiring comics and comedy fans alike. My wife and I recently came here to watch a friend perform in one of their showcases, and it was great fun. About ten comics (all students, I believe) did short sets; as with any comedy show, some were funnier than others, but it w...
Jerry's workshop is just what I needed to give me the confidence to get the ball rolling with my stand up. He also gives you the tools that will help you move forward and put together a set worth hearing. On top of all that Jerry is just an all around great guy and I am better off as a person for ...
A group of us went last night and were surprised by the quality of the comedians. They were universally funny. Loved the small venue. Highly recommend it!
Jerry is FANTASTIC! I've never done standup but always wondered if I should. I took Jerry's weekend intensive workshop and it was amazing. I learned so much information and various writing techniques that I felt like I owed him more money!
He's so passionate about standup and really helps a perso...
The workshop Jerry did, was extremely helpful, and giving me the confidence, and the know how, to write a funny joke, on my own. Thanks Jerry. If you are on the fence on taking this class, take it, no doubt Jerry knows how to help you, not only that, but Jerry was down to earth.
