About the Event
Ross Hyzer ’03 shares his experience of studying comedy theory at Brown before going on to develop the practical craft of stand-up comedy and comedy writing; how theory connected (or didn’t) to performance; and the insights he gained from exploring two different facets of the pursuit of laughter.
