Let’s start with what’s geared toward our kiddos:
Improv for Kids!
Aug 16, 2015 12:00 – 3PM
This high-energy class for ages 8-13 will introduce youngsters to the basics of improv comedy. Kids will learn how to play basic improv games, think on their feet, and work together to create scenes from a suggestion. This special one-day introductory workshop will be taught by Sara Cravens, a character actress, improvisor, and comedy writer trained by The Groundlings. This class is a three hour class and the fee is $49. (LINK)
Two Milk Minimum

Comedian and juggler Michael Rayner (Sesame Street, David Letterman) will host a family friendly comedy show where everyone, young and old, will be laughing. Two Milk Minimum will also feature Vicktor Aggerwhil, a 17-year old standup comedian who trained at Second City, Sydney Feyder, another 17-year old also from Second City, and Neil Aggerwhil, a 13-year old who has been doing comedy for two years, and has performed at The Hollywood Improv, Flappers Comedy Club, and The Warehouse in Marina Del Rey.

Now, on to the adults. This festival has something for everyone. I was glancing over the schedule and I’m not joking, they have sessions titled, “Parks & Wrecks,” “Jokes For Jews,” “Psychic Stand-Up,” Hawaii 5-Bro,” “Ladies of Laughter” and something I’m looking forward to, “The Real Housewives of Comedy,” featuring a friend and fellow BurbankMom, Mary Gallagher. (You’ll love Mary). Visit Mary’s amazing website HERE…
Hope to see you at Flapper’s!!
