Finding Your Funny: Standup from the Ground Up
Week 7 | M, Tu, W, Th | Turner 105 | Ages 18 and up
Many people share the secret ambition of trying standup comedy but find the prospect too daunting. This class will demystify the process, from creating a set to "owning the stage" and tamping down deeply seated fears. The class concludes with a short comedy show with a supportive audience of family and friends. Though we will spend time crafting material, the prime objective of this class is to help you find your comedic voice and the confidence to take the stage.
