ImprovCity
138 West Main Street4-Week Workshop - LIMITED TO 10 STUDENTS
Ever wanted to try stand-up comedy but didn't know what to say? In this hands-on four-week workshop, you'll learn how comedians turn everyday experiences, observations and opinions into jokes. We'll explore joke structure, punchlines, storytelling, misdirection, comedic voice and more. You'll write, workshop and refine your own material throughout the course. By the end you should have anywhere between 3 to 5 minutes of standup material to test out at an open mic or showcase. Please note, there is NO performance showcase for this class. This is strictly a writing workshop.
