In this intense workshop designed for both "newbies" and veteran comics alike, our top Instructors at Flappers Comedy University will discuss the basic foundation rules in crafting a joke for the stage. Even comics who have been performing for years can often improve their existing material through an in-depth examination of WHY a joke works, how to structure it for maximum effectiveness, and how to mine your own life experience for new materials. This workshop is specially tailored towards both beginning comics who want to learn where to begin and professionals who want to brush up on the basic fundamentals of stand-up comedy in a fun, safe environment!
In this class you will learn: + Basic Improv Skills + Fundamentals of joke structure + Proper microphone technique + How to mine for funny material in your life + How to connect with an audience + How to discover your own unique point-of-view
Even if you don't want to become a stand up comic, these same basic skills can be applied to work meetings, presentations, auditions, script writing, social media or even dating! If you've ever wondered about where to start in comedy - or wanted to make sure you're still using good writing habits - this is one workshop that's not to be missed!
