Day to Day
The students of Comedy on Cues’ days begin at 9:00 with warmups and ensemble building work. After that, they will split off into their two “casts” each lead by a teaching artist to take their classes on topics such as improvisation and joke writing and to write and rehearse their sketches for the final showcase. Students take a lunch break in the middle of the day and head out for parent pick up at 4:00.
The Staff
Our team of expert staff is one of our greatest prides at Comedy on Cue. Our camp is led by Alejandro Gómez, our lead teaching artist. He selects the experts that will be teaching the students their comedy classes and guides the teaching artists that are leading each of the “casts” in preparation for their final showcase.
The Final Performance
The final performance takes place in the evening on the last day of camp. Students stay at camp all day through the evening that day preparing to perform their sketches for an audience of their friends and friends at the Shea’s Smith theater.
