Comedy on Campus

Comedy has long been one of the best ways to bring the campus community together. Our comedians have diverse appeal, and can customize a routine based on your college or university.  Below, some ideas for side-splitting events.  

  • Second City is the troupe where everyone from Mike Myers to Tina Fey and Steve Carell honed their improv skills. They’ll prepare a live, customized comedy show including original scenes crafted by theirs writers and based on the day-to-day life at your school.
     
  • Paul Mecurio is a Wall Street lawyer turned Daily Show scribe who kills with college crowds. Each show is completely unique, topical, and filled with hilarious observations and banter from the Emmy-winning comedian.
     
  • Dave Werner is Yale Law School grad turned comedian who crafts witty song cycles about current events. College audiences on the brink of the “real world” get a kick out of Werner’s tales of his former life in the corporate world and as a Senate staffer.
     
  • Kathleen Madigan has been called one of America’s funniest comedians by Jay Leno, and her superb timing and polished act has made her a favorite among colleges. She starred in her own HBO Half-Hour Comedy Special and has made appearances on Leno, Letterman, and Comedy Central, and more.
     
  • Darrell Hammond is a recognizable face from SNL, and a master of the political impression. He’s known for tackling impressions of the entire administration—sometimes in the same sketch. A real pro, Darrell Hammond brings star power combined with an accessible and unpretentious style that keeps audiences cheering.

These are just some of the great comedians we can book for your school. Give us a call at 1-800-SEPAKER for hilarious entertainment options and more.
