It’s Never
Too Late
to
Be Funny
I’m Linda Kuriloff — an actor, comedian, and coach. I’m starting my stand-up career at midlife, and I can show you how to turn your own life stories into laughter too.

Meet Linda
Kuriloff
I’ve been using performance techniques for decades. I’ve worked stages, taught workshops, and helped thousands of people grow through career services and storytelling. But after the untimely death of my husband, I felt my own story had taken a tragic turn.
Comedy was always in my bones, but I had never fully given myself permission to chase it. Until now.
I’m stepping back on stage—not in a play with a cast this time, but—with fresh material drawn from real life—grief and healing, family issues, career changes, aging, and the quirks of starting over.
And I can help you do the same.
Why Comedy
at Midlife?
Life Experience
By your 50s and 60s, you’ve lived through rich chapters of family, career, and personal milestones—stories that make powerful, relatable comedy. Unlike younger comics, your voice offers wisdom, resilience, and authenticity that audiences crave. Even life’s toughest moments—divorce, retirement, loss, or an empty nest—can become setups for punchlines that bring healing laughter. With decades of perspective behind you, you step on stage with confidence, courage, and a uniquely fresh take on standup.
REINVENTION
Midlife reinvention isn’t about chasing a dream you missed—it’s about stepping into it now with courage and joy. Standup comedy offers more than laughter; it gives you community, creativity, and a renewed sense of purpose. By redefining success, you move beyond past roles to become someone who entertains, inspires, and uplifts. This course proves it’s never too late—your second act can be your boldest, funniest, and most fulfilling chapter yet.
COMEDY benefits
Comedy isn’t just about telling jokes—it’s a path to connection, healing, and confidence. This course helps you find your comedy tribe while giving you the tools to turn stress and life changes into laughter. You’ll gain practical training in writing, performance, and stage presence, all with a family-friendly approach that keeps your humor inclusive and uplifting. Best of all, you’ll walk away with your very own 5-minute stand-up set—ready to share with private or public audiences.
