PREREQUISITE: YOU MUST HAVE COMPLETED LEVEL 1 SKETCH OR EQUIVALENT AT ANOTHER COMEDY THEATER TO QUALIFY FOR THIS CLASS. In the comment section of Checkout, please list when you took said classes and who your instructors were.
If you fail to meet the prerequisites for this course and continue to register anyway, we will have to transfer you out and add the balance as class credit, to be used for other classes.
Building Your Packet, students will utilize the skills developed in “Sketch Writing Level 1” to write sketches in a series of classic formats. Mastering the modern sketch comedy standards – commercial parodies, character pieces, topical sketches, and many more – is the primary goal of this class, as students will begin to fine-tune and hone their personal sketch comedy voice.
By the end of this class, students will have written five original sketches, and will be well on their way to having a polished, professional sketch writing packet.
