Come ease the transition from day-drinking to night-drinking with Punchline!, Wesleyan’s only stand-up comedy collective! Expect laughter, tears, and more laughter as we bid our seniors adieu in the only way we know how – with lots of jokes about penises (probably).

The Wesleyan Comedy Committee is bringing CollegeHumor’s Adam Conover to campus for a night of standup comedy. Also featured will be award-winning comic Reid Faylor and Wesleyan’s own Willie Zabar.
No ticket needed, but please show up early to guarantee seating.
Adam Conover will also be leading a STANDUP COMEDY WORKSHOP at 4:00pm TODAY in the Usdan Multipurpose Room. Please bring 3 minutes of material. It should also be noted that depending on turnout, it is possible that not everyone will get a chance to share their material.
The Wesleyan Comedy Committee is a new student group dedicated to bringing professional comedians to Wesleyan.

Though there may still be some snow on the ground, spring has officially sprung. Come celebrate the (theoretical) end of winter with Wesleyan’s only stand-up comedy collective! Your laughter will breed prodigiously like rabbits in the spring.
Regen Routman ’16 jingles all the way:
It’s the Friday before finals, what else is there to do besides hear Wesleyan’s finest (and only) stand-up comedy collective say funny things into your ears? Forget the imminent holiday crazy times and come laugh with us!

Come feast with Punchline! (Wesleyan’s first/greatest/last/only stand-up comedy collective) as we stuff ourselves with delicious comedy and give thanks for all our blessings (namely, three brand-new members).
Laugh with us, cry with us, feel uncomfortably full with us, and argue with us like we’re your very own relatives!
