Lessons in humor II

Victoria, 4th grade, Cole Manor, 2025-26.

By Aimana, MaST Community Charter School Healthy Panther Post | I thought that the interview went really well. Something that stuck out to me was how she is still at ComedySportz. She has been there for about 33 years. I really liked how she explained her responses well. She said she isn’t the funniest person and she wouldn’t make jokes about something someone can’t change about themselves. This is what I really liked about her.

Editor’s note: Seventh-grade reporters reflected on their experience of interviewing Mary Carpenter, executive director at ComedySportz in Philadelphia, and participating in two improvisation activities
