The Feminine Comique: Virtual Stand-Up Workshop

Stay Sharp While Staying At Home With This All Female Stand-Up Comedy Writing Workshop

In light of the shelter in place ordinances across the country, the Lincoln Lodge Training Center is now offering a Fem Com comedy workshop series with Lincoln Lodge instructor Alex Kumin. Groups of 5 will gather for 75 minute sessions via Zoom where working comedians can build out premises or further develop bits in a small, online group setting.

Interested comedians can register via Brown Paper Ticket for an upcoming session, to be held over a Zoom video conference. Once signed up all attendees will receive a Zoom invite via email. You will receive this email no later than one day before your workshops is to start.

There is a $5 suggested donation attached to the workshop, which directly supports the instructors during this indefinite time of theater closure. IF YOU CANNOT PAY THE $5 DONATION AT THIS TIME PLEASE CONTACT US AT lincolnlodgetraining@gmail.com AND WE WILL WAVE THIS FEE.

We are offering these sessions to stay connected and creative during this difficult time, so join us in keeping the future of comedy alive with the Lincoln Lodge.

What is Feminine Comique?
The world of stand-up comedy can be an isolating place for women and for this reason many women are deterred from stand-up early in their careers or before they have even begun.

The Lincoln Lodge has created The Feminine Comique a beginners foundation course that strives to give prospective female* performers the confidence and skills they need to begin a career in stand-up comedy.

The Feminine Comique gives students the opportunity to spend five weeks in a supportive all-female environment while learning the fundamentals necessary to write and perform stand-up comedy.

*Fem Com uses an inclusive definition of the word female, and we welcome trans women, genderqueer and non-binary individuals.
