That’s a wrap on Stand Up Masterclass 101!!

Weeks of writing, workshopping, rewriting, sharpening… and then absolutely SHOWING OUT. So proud of this crew and the work they put in.

Huge love to , host, teacher, and architect of THE METHOD!! For guiding this class from first draft to final punchline.

And major thanks to not only for headlining the showcase, but for being an incredible TA throughout the process. This class is better because you were in the room!
