Want to start out in comedy? New stand-up comic, but want to refine your stuff? Join our class for just €299!

That Comedy Thing's practical standup class is open for signups! With Live & Learn you we focus on actually performing live, we'll get you on stage in front of a real crowd with the first 3 weeks, and you will be performing at least 4 times in the course of 8 weeks.

Getting on stage is the ultimate way to learn, secundary to feedback. Ask any comedian!

That's why we combined both in this class.

It's €299 for 8 classes, payment in installments is possible!

We are currently taking sign ups for May-June!

Grateful to be a part of a comedy scene where the people who built the community, keep the community alive.

Whether it's inviting up and coming comic to open for her, or comedians like .yazbek and many others showing up to support that same Nadine at her first ever performance of her hour, seeing that means the world to us.

This our scene, we built it together, we own it together.

Never take this stuff for granted
