“Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent.”

-Victor Hugo

“She got a big booty so I call her Big Booty”

-2Chainz

The relationship between music and comedy reaches back millennia, to when caveman tribes invented music and Jerry Seinfeld invented comedy. In this 6 week course, we will develop the tools and technique to create comedic songs for use in stand-up, sketch comedy, or writing for film/television/theater.. Students will leave class with a completed song and an audio track with accompaniment.

All skill levels are welcome, whether you’re a musician looking to write funnier songs, a comedian looking to integrate music into your act, or anyone else who thinks they might have a knack for musical comedy. Note: You do not need to play an instrument.

***Grad Show will be held on SUN 12/10 @ 3pm***

* As of 7/1/2023, we are instituting a strict no refund policy.

Please note, class start dates are subject to be postponed up to 4 weeks from original posted date
