TOOLS/TIPS/TECHNIQUES
A mini Presentation on how humour can be discovered and/or developed eg. The proper use of Setup and Punch line or The Rule of Three. Approximately 2 minutes.
STANDUP
Just as it reads. Unlike a humourous speech, this is a rapid fire of setup/punchline

PRESENTATION - educational session on incorporating humour. Maximum 10 minutes.
HA COUNTER
Keeps track of who gets a laugh(s); the type of laugh and maybe even the duration of each laugh(?)
