Class of Comedy at Pokrovka campus

Last Sunday in one of the lecture rooms in Pokrovka campus, students had a very unusual class. Although there were no books or laptops, no given assignment, and the class was not part of any program taught at HSE, the audience were steadfastly focused and responsive.
The class we are talking about is the Class of Comedy, an English Stand Up comedy event organized by HSE international student Anshuman Sharma in association with International Student Support Center.
Performing on stage were professional comedians and HSE students. Being discussed was life and things around us, tragic yet incredibly funny.
Everyone was so engrossed in comedy that almost 2 hours passed without anyone showing any signs of fatigue. In the end, the only question that was raised by the audience was "When is the next Class of Comedy?" Subscribe to our Instagram and VK not to miss the next event!
