Then don’t miss this workshop – party, really – ‘cause we’ll be looking at comedy through the specific filter of Halloween – and we’ll be doing it in costume! Is that right? Did you hear right? Are you really expected to come in costume to a Zoom writing workshop in the privacy of your own home? You bet you are. Just think about how daring you’ll feel, and recognize that daring is to comedy as apples are to candy apples – indispensable! Does this sound frivolous or really not like a writing class at all? Come on – haven’t you ever struggled to come up with a great Halloween costume? Isn’t it the same struggle as writing a joke? Can’t we fix that? Yes, we can! Or say, how about this? Have you ever thought of a great idea for a Halloween gag or event only to hear a little voice inside your head saying that they’ll never let you get away with that? Isn’t that the same as self-editing a non-Halloween joke or story? Can we fix that? Yes, we can! And even if you don’t care all that much about Halloween, it’ll still be a fun and festive workshop that’ll kick start your comedy and creativity just in time for… well, for whatever comes next. You want topics? We got topics! Fast iteration Clash of context Using taboo as a tool How to FAIL BIG! Plus plenty of time for Q&A Don’t miss out! DO COME IN COSTUME! It won’t be a party without you.
