Listen up ladies: If you have even an inkling of attraction to comedy, Blaire Postman wants you to give it a shot. This comedian says there just aren't enough women coming out to Open Mic Nights in Wilmington, so she's holding a 4-week Stand-Up Comedy Classto prepare you. If you just want to get a feel for the comedy community, there is a no-obligation Women in Comedy Panel, featuring women who do stand-up, improv, sketch comedy, and book shows at comedy clubs. They'll answer all your questions and talk about their experiences. The Panel and the classes are at Dead Crow Comedy Room.
"Women in Comedy Panel." Monday, August 8th, 7:00pm-7:45pm. The first "Women's Stand-Up Comedy Class" begins directly after, 7:45pm-8:30pm for those who want to stay. The Class runs Monday nights for 4 weeks, 7:00pm-8:30pm; $25 for the entire run at Dead Crow Comedy Room.
