Reminiscence Comedy Hour Kit, Complete 45-Minute Senior Program with Facilitation Script, Printable

A complete 45-minute program you can run from a single printed document. The script tells you exactly what to say at the start of each section, how to transition between topics, what to do when the room goes quiet, and how to close. You do not need to be funny. You do not need to know your residents' stories in advance. You hold the space and ask the questions; the room does the rest.

What you get:

• Full 45-minute program with minute-by-minute timing
• Facilitator script with exact transition lines between all sections
• Six tested funny memory prompts (worst job, most embarrassing moment, etc.)
• Individual discussion guide for each prompt
• "When the room goes quiet" recovery language for every section
• Works as a standalone monthly feature or recurring program

The six prompts are sequenced intentionally: warm-up first, deeper stories in the middle, an emotional close at the end. Each has follow-up questions that produce stories when the first answer is short.

Laughter in a group setting is one of the most connecting human experiences available. This program is built to produce that moment, reliably, without asking you to perform.
