School of Hard Knock Knocks

Simply the best way to learn stand-up comedy in Sydney. First, you get one-on-one coaching from experienced comedians, then you get to meet celebrity comedians, and even better, you get to perform your final set in front of a big audience! The course is based out of Melbourne, where the company owns The Rubber Chicken comedy pub.

It's amazing what they can help you achieve! The quality of the learning material is fantastic and the frequent stage time helps get you up and running fast. The support along the way is fantastic. It's also great to be laughing with everyone while you learn. Highly recommended!

Had the best fun doing and performing at SHKKs. Tutors were amazing, guest comedian full of invaluable advice and absolutely killed. Not to mention a fellow comic pose to get you on the open mic road. Worth every cent!

Learning stand-up comedy doesn't need to take years of late night open mic nights, grasping for 5-minute spots across the city. The School of Hard Knock Knocks cuts years off the learning curve, because it is systematically taught by veteran comedians with trained facilitators and a combination of activities, feedback and loads of practice. The graduates are so good in fact, that we book them within 6 to 12 months to perform at Punchlines Comedy Club.
