LaughingStock Comedy Company A Full-Service Funny Business Featuring Experienced Comics Who Have Written and Performed Hundreds of Customized Comedy Shows When You Want Interactive, Intelligent and Memorable Entertainment for Banquets, Meetings and Company Events... ...We Deliver A Customized Comic Look at Your Culture LaughingStock is unique because we customize every performance. Prior to the show, we learn everything we can about you. We read your material, interview your people and ask all the right questions. Every business, product, service and organization has a lode of humor. We're experts at digging up the joys and frustrations, foibles and follies, buzzwords and common denominators the audience shares. At show time, we integrate this extensive research with our wit, characters and "improv" experience. Our team of comedy experts spontaneously creates customized comic scenes about your world. The result is a fun and funny show designed especially for your audience. Fun and Funny, Live Improvisational Comedy Improvisational comedy shows are made up of fresh, original scenes based on audience input. The audience fills in the details of our distinctive comedy by volunteering a variety of suggestions (emotions, objects, activities, occupations, locations) throughout the performance. Improv is immediate and exciting. The audience is in on the fun as they see their ideas mushroom into comedy mayhem. Whatever Business You're In, We Think It's Funny... Your Audience Will, Too!

It was remarkable how quickly you established rapport with the attendees...they went from chuckling (first 60 seconds), to laughing out loud (second 60 seconds), to guffawing, even roaring by the end. Truly delightful!" Sally Charpiot Market Analysis & Communications Compaq Computer Corporation "I think your humor and comedy approach is perfect for corporate events because it can involve so many participants and can be successfully carried through the entire conference." Marianne Emerton Manager, Corporate Events Lotus Development Corporation "After the show, several of my colleagues thanked me for bringing you to our conference and said it was the most they had laughed in a long time. Thanks for making me look so good. It's great to work with such pros!" Steve Weylandt Partner Deloitte & Touche Management Consultants "In addition to being funny, I think you should be proud that all of the attendees left the celebration with a special feeling about themselves, their jobs and our corporate family as a result of the personal touch you gave to the show." Rod Troup Director, Worldwide Video Communications/Global Projects The Upjohn Company "...Union Camp was nervous about the use of humor at our meeting, but after our pre-meeting teleconference phone call and review of your sketches, our comfort level jumped dramatically... we couldn't have imagined the meeting being a success without the comedy and your performances."
