Stand Up and Learn
Stand Up and Learn is an uniquely designed educational program in comedic writing and performance that seeks to develop students creative writing, communication, and critical thinking as well as team and confidence building. Stand Up and Learn is sponsored by the Nantucket Comedy Festival, which is held annually in Nantucket, Mass, as a way to bring together the community through the universal gift of laughter. Stand Up and Learn is being implemented in five schools for special needs students in Nantucket, New York and Connecticut.
