Sketch Comedy at SCIT
Write it. Rehearse it. Perform it.
Steel City Improv Theater’s Sketch Comedy Program is where comedy writers and performers come to create bold, original, and hilarious work—in the tradition of The Second City, The Groundlings, and The Upright Citizens Brigade.
Whether you dream of writing for television, performing in your own sketch revue, or just want to sharpen your comedic voice, our program gives you the tools to bring your ideas to life. You’ll learn the fundamentals of sketch structure, character, heightening, parody, and more, all while developing your own original material.
Our instructors include working professionals with real-world experience in the industry. You’ll write multiple sketches, receive constructive feedback, and perform your work in a live class showcase—because here at SCIT, we believe the best way to learn comedy is by doing it.
From first-timers to aspiring showrunners, our Sketch Comedy Program is a place to play, experiment, and grow.
