About this Event
In this workshop we'll explore the essentials of crafting jokes that hit home and resonate with your audience. You'll learn how to mine your own experiences for material—because if you can't laugh at your own life, who can? By the end, you'll be armed with marketing tools and who knows...you might just become the next comedy sensation—or at least the funniest person at your family reunions!
Keesha Brownie is an energetic, multi-faceted performer. She crafts her comedic recipe with a background in theatre, sketch, and music. Making observations about her Jamaican roots and Canadian upbringing, she punctuates punchlines with act-outs, parody songs, and sometimes even backup dancers.
"Theatre is what really gave me the legs and the skeleton to do standup comedy because it's the same kind of art form, you're up there and you're vulnerable." - Keesha Brownie, interview with Alexis Perikleous for CBC.
Behind that dynamic stage presence lies a fierce work ethic and an entrepreneurial mind. Brownie is a Second City alumni, independent show producer, and she keeps her fingers on the pulse by frequenting open mics all over Toronto.
Brownie earned a Canadian Comedy Award nomination for Best Female Stand-Up in 2015. From there, she has made a name for herself on a global scale. Brownie has graced the stage across Canada and the United States. She's also performed in the Caribbean and the United Kingdom.
