LEARN & LAUGH FROM HOME!

Crossroads Comedy Theater’s growing catalog of online comedy arts courses are not pre-recorded, one-size-fits-all videos. Our 6 week courses are taught by real, live humans who actually do the comedy art they are teaching. They will work with you to make sure you understand the material and improve throughout the course. 

We know not everyone can make it to one of our in-person classes in Philadelphia or Indianapolis, so let us come to you! Learn something new, expand your friend circle, and have a great time doing it.

Whether it’s improv, stand-up comedy, comedy writing, storytelling, acting, or any of our other amazing  online courses – we got your back!

ONLINE STAND-UP CLASS BENEFITS

    All our classes run live via Zoom. This means your instructor is right there with you for questions, clarity, feedback, praise, etc all in the moment. You can also email with them in between classes.

  • Build Life, Social, & Professional Skills!

    Skills learned in our classes go beyond the stage and page. Improve communication, build self-confidence, embrace collaboration, be more positive, think faster on you feet, and so much more! Great skills for sales people, teachers, lawers, etc.
