FINDING THE PUNCHLINE: Some aspiring comics have great ideas and concepts for material, but many do not know how to drive their ideas to a satisfying, hard-hitting punchline.
Join this one-day class on Saturday, August 31, 2019 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., where you will learn the tricks and strategies for finding each and every appropriate ending to each of your jokes – your joke beats and segments. Class size is limited to 6 students.
STAND UP/STAND OUT: Yep, there are many funny people who do stand up comedy, but in today’s competitive comedy world, it takes more than being the funny gal/guy. It requires uniqueness. Sounds reasonable and surely you can think of many comics who are memorable, but why is it that they are? What makes them different from the rest?
Find out in our one-day class on Saturday, September 21, 2019 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., where we will help you discover your stand up comedy “brand” – in terms of your delivery, your material, and, your style! Standing out takes awareness, creativity, and a thoughtful probe. Join us for this unusual stand up comedy class.
