About
Humor Camp
Digging Deeper
Extensive research shows that humor is a powerful phenomenon within the personal, intimate, relational and interpersonal spaces that make and define the human experience. Yet, it is often difficult in today’s world to find places where adults can a) learn more about humor and b) test what works, what doesn’t, and receive feedback as to how to “do humor” better next time.
By integrating resources inside the state-of-the-art, experiential National Comedy Center with the inspired Humor Camp 2025 schedule, attendees will learn from classic comedy’s roots as they discover the humor that resides within and around each one of us.
True to the art form, Humor Camp 2025 will provide a place where comic irreverence can be tested, practiced and better-understood. As an additional and welcomed outcome, authentic, unencumbered laughter may erupt.
