"As each of us feels more comfortable, we share intimate moments from our lives. It's different from the stand-up I tried, because, ultimately, success isn't dependent on making people laugh." - Now Magazine
We tell stories all the time, every day, but it's the deeper stories, the ones that changed your life, that should be told more often.
This course focuses on high stakes content: a true personal story with big emotional investment, relationship, and change and the mechanics of writing and performing that story with lyricism and investment.
We will discuss what makes a strong high stakes story, story structure, editing, the importance of detail, and connecting with the audience. High energy games form a large part of the learning process.
Every class will include up thirty minutes a week of homework. This challenging course culminates in a 7 minute high stakes true story, told during the last class to your friends and family.
