We are proud to present one of our most rewarding workshops. In this one month week workshop you will:
- Learn to take your life story, regardless of circumstances, find the humor, and transform it into a five minute comedy set that is compelling and fresh with every performance.
- Add the Storytelling element to your stand up set and learn to connect with your audience and build an extended set.
- Explore the darker side of comedy. Develop a strong point of view so that no one can replicate your material.
- Learn to take risks as a comic, actor and writer, resulting in unbridled confidence.
- Use crowd work to further your story when you are not connected to your audience.
- Make your audience want to laugh and cry through your story arch.
