Have you ever wanted to perform stand-up comedy or become a more confident public speaker? The Stand-Up Comedy Summer Course at the Gaiety School of Acting, The National Theatre School of Ireland offers a welcoming environment where beginners can discover their own comedic voice.
Over eight evening sessions, you'll work alongside professional comedians who will help you develop original material, refine your delivery, and build a stand-up routine through constructive, honest feedback. As your confidence grows, you'll shape your ideas into a short comedy set to perform at the end of the course.
The programme is ideal for complete beginners as well as anyone looking to improve presentation skills, public speaking, or stage confidence. Whether your ambition is to perform comedy or simply become more comfortable speaking in front of an audience, this practical course provides valuable techniques in a fun and supportive setting.
The Gaiety School of Acting has been training performers for almost 30 years and is recognised as The National Theatre School of Ireland. Its experienced tutors bring industry knowledge and professional expertise to every course, helping students develop skills that extend well beyond the stage.
