*Writing Funny *
Ever wanted to write comedy, or maybe just add a bit of humour to a more
serious
work? Probably not, but now you're thinking about it, right? This four
hour interactive
seminar covers all the basics of humorous writing. If you have something
you've been
working on please bring it along for discussion or, if you're simply
looking for inspiration,
just bring your open mind—they'll be something in it by the end of
class. a four hour
interactive seminar Saturday, March 6. $60 teens and adults ($40 for
students).
*Comedy: From Idea to Performance *
This six class program starts by answering the question "Where do you
get your ideas?"
and ends with YOU performing your very own comedy routine. Learn how to
find
something to write about, make it funnier, and how to polish and edit
it. Then take next
step and perform what you've created. All forms of humour are
encouraged—music,
song, sketch, stand-up, monologue—but it's best to simply show up and
see what
happens. You might be surprised where you end up!
