AA Stand Up Comedy Club Header
The Stand Up Comedy Club is a group dedicated to offering opportunities for students to perform original stand up comedy routines in front of live audiences. The group is composed of students of varying experience levels who work together to write, edit, and perform original stand up comedy routines. Occasionally the club might host a traveling comedian who can share advice with members and grow the network of comedians around the country. Regularly, club members can be seen at local bars, comedy clubs, theaters, and campus events. To book the Stand Up Comedy Club for a show, where we typically do showcase style shows where a group of comedians does about 10 minutes or less each, please contact a club officer from our directory or email the club in general at: isusucc@gmail.com

Welcome Back SUCCers!!

*You hear Western standoff whistling playing in the background as I approach you in an old town saloon, my spurs jingling with every step*

 

"Howdy there, you think I'm some kinda fool?" I say (Clint Eastwood in his prime is doing a voice-over so I sound like him)

 

*A tumbleweed blows by, and I reach for my side with blazing speed. I pull the trigger, and a flag that says "BANG" comes out of the barrel*

 

"Well, you're absolutely right." 

 

Ok, enough of that; also, now you are reading this in your head with my normal voice. It is no longer Clint Eastwood in his prime, and it's me now. 

 

Welcome back to another semester. I hope you all have had a great summer and are ready to return to the swing of things! This semester, we are meeting in Curtiss 0208 on Wednesdays from 6 - 7:30 pm (that includes today). I hope I see you all there, as there is much to discuss and laugh about. Including Club Fest, our first show of the semester, and a discussion on how to silence the voices.

 

Ok, now I am back to the Clint Eastwood thing, and it's his voice in your head now and not mine while you are reading the rest of this.

"Take Care now, ya hear?" *Spits into a spittoon and does an epic backflip onto a horse with the sunset behind me. The horse gets up on its hind legs and neighs loudly (also in Clint Eastwood's voice), and I ride off into the sunset*

uuhhhh... guys... I think you need to see this...

Today we are gonna have a meeting for the Stand-Up Comedy Club. 

 

*Thunderstruck begins to play*

 

Are you ready? "I was born ready" you all say in unison.

 

umm.. okay what just happened?

 

Today we will be watching clips from the late Norm Macdonald as this passed weekend was the anniversary of his passing two years ago. Let's kick it up a notch. We will also be talking about new updates regarding our show in early October and collaborations with the Comedy College Class.

 

Is that all you got?

 

No, I'm just getting started...

 

NOBODY MOVE, I also wanted to share that there will be an open mic at Mothers Pub this Thursday hosted by the great and powerful Chasey! Wait.. She's right behind me isn't she..??

 

So be sure to come out to the meeting tonight, but make it quick because ITS GONNA BLOW!

 

gah.. that sounded better in my head,

Show Lineup Today!

Hey all,

This is a reminder that we have another general meeting today at 6 pm! 

We are gonna get our lineup ready, so if you would like to perform at the show, try to make it today (and if you can't, text us and let us know). If you still would like to participate but don't want to perform, there are still many ways you can help! We always need people to help set it up and take it down, and we also need someone to DJ.

If you know of any opportunities to watch/perform, please let me know, but from what I can tell, the only opportunity to perform between this club meeting and the next one is the M-Shop Open Mic, which is October 1st @ 8 pm. 

I hope to see you all there today,

Billy

Final Meeting before our After Dark Show!!

Good afternoon all,

Today, we are gonna have our final club meeting before our After Dark show this Friday. We are gonna work on set preparation, and hopefully, everyone will leave today having a good idea of what jokes they wanna tell and in what order they wanna tell them. We will also be taking a small field trip over to the room where we are gonna have our show so we can get a feel for the setup. 

Also, if you are performing in the show, get a good idea of what walk-up song you want (the song you want to have played as you walk up on stage). If you don't tell us what song you want before the show, the song WILL be Creep by Radiohead.

Hope to see you all there,

Billy
