Camp LOL

Camp Laugh Out Loud

"A day without laughter is a day wasted."
-Charlie Chaplin

Beat the summer heat with some comic relief!

PAW’s Camp LOL is the place for aspiring young comics to hone their skills and learn the finer points of the comedian’s craft. Camp LOL is designed for novices and experienced performers alike. Students will be guided by skilled, nurturing instructors who will help them build a strong foundation on which to develop their talents.

Beginning with voice, speech, and diction, students will be immersed in the fundamentals: improv, joke structure, sketch writing, creating characters, developing an on-stage persona, joke writing, joke delivery and performance. As the week progresses, campers will develop a 3 to 5 minute repertoire of jokes ~ their “set”, which they will perform for friends and family on the final day of camp!

There’s more to the comic’s craft than just fun and jokes. The mastery of stand-up comedy offers a number of benefits, including building self-confidence and esteem, critical thinking, developing language and oratory skills, improvisational thinking, making friends and more.

So join us at the open mic! Make friends, make memories, and make ‘em laugh!
