This is our awesome 8 week class introducing the fundamentals of comedy sketch writing and performance.
You’ll create short sketches by yourself and in groups. Working in a writer’s room, you’ll engage in improv and writing exercises which explore different sketch formats, using the techniques used to create material for stage, films and T.V. e.g. Saturday Night Live, Late Night with Conan O’Brien and Second City mainstage shows.
As a class group, you’ll concentrate on different methods for brainstorming ideas, and using them to create solid sketches. You’ll leave the class with an understanding of a variety of sketch formats and a portfolio of writing. You’ll also have the opportunity to perform and or have your sketches performed on stage.
