Developing a Sketch Show
Saturdays, May 16th - May 16th (1 Classes)
4:00 pm - 6:30 pm

Building on the foundations set in 101 – Intro to Sketch, this course focuses on the writer’s room and producing a full sketch show. During the first 4 weeks of the course, students will learn the process of pitching & brainstorming and working in a writer’s room, and will then be expected to write and select sketches for a 30-minute student show. The second half of the course will consist of re-writing, producing and rehearsing the show itself. Due to the current Coronavirus pandemic, much of this course will be held online via video conferencing and the student show will not be performed in front of a live audience but will be livestreamed via the Comedy Café Berlin online platform!
Student show: July 4th, time TBD
Participation in the student show is required to pass this course!
