The Yes, And…Laughter Lab is a competitive incubation lab and pitch program that lifts up diverse comedy writers and performers creating new comedy about topics that matter. The Laughter Lab is designed to introduce these comedians to the entertainment industry, social justice organizations, philanthropists and activists who can help bring their work into the comedy marketplace – and into movements for social change. Powered by CMSI and Moore + Associates, and based on pathbreaking research, the Lab leverages comedy’s unique power to change public perceptions about, and build power within, marginalized communities in the United States.
