Description: Creating a live sketch show
We will focus on:
Writing sketches that lend themselves to stage performance such as character monologues, game show sketches, physical spectacle sketches, & more. Each week you will be asked to write a specific type of sketch.
Performing sketch comedy on stage
Collaborative writing - we will work in a writers room setting with table reads and feedback from the instructor and the group
Final revisions as a group - we will do a line-by-line punch-up of scripts
Producing a live sketch show - making a show order, putting together a tech script, promotion
The class will end in a live performance. You can choose to focus on acting in the show or learning more of the behind-the-scenes producing aspect. If you do not want to perform, or perform very little, you are still welcome.
