Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this comedy class:

Building on 101: Intro To Comedy, we take a deeper dive, or belly flop, into generating, writing/refining and performing jokes, stories, bits and more.

Intermediate Level+

Prior creative writing, stand-up or performance instruction/experience is required. This can’t be your first ride on the ferris wheel.

As you know from 101, your Host, Shawn, is experienced in hosting an environment for all to be embarrassed in. In a good way... Like politicians, we all like to have a voice.

What you'll cover in the free info session:

Classes culminate in a Comedic Recital for invited guests.

Photo, Audio, Video are prohibited, per instructor’s/participant’s discretion.
