Stand Up Comedy
Have you ever wondered if you could stand on stage with a mic, and make people laugh? It's a huge high when you pull it off, but the fear of bombing can be nerve-wracking. Or maybe you have no idea how to begin. This workshop is a great way to get started. It's challenging but will probably become your favourite night of the week. In less than two months, you will create strong material and gain the confidence it takes years to build by doing Open Mics alone. Instructor: Kirsten is acclaimed for her unique curriculum and supportive style of teaching. She has been teaching for many years and has taught hundreds of regular people from all walks of life. Many have continued on their path to become comics - performing and hosting live shows, radio and television, even winning comedy competitions. For others, it is a bucket list item - and that is cool too! Each class you will get the chance to perform, receive constructive feedback and be given creative assignments for the following week. The group will also discuss topics in comedy, get insider tips, and generally laugh a lot. The session wraps with a comedy showcase - you will have the option of performing or just enjoy the show with new friends. No experience is required, just bring a sense of humour, a pen and a large old-school notebook. Also a mask, hand sani and proof of Vax required for 2021. Allow 30 to 60 minutes per week of creative homework outside of class. Open to adults 19+. CHEK TV story featuring Patrick Boyle
