About this Event

ABOUT THIS CLASS

New to script writing and wondering where to start? This one-day class is a focused, low-pressure way to begin- no experience required.

Designed as a first step into our Comedy Writing 101 program, this 2-hour session introduces the creative mindset behind sketch writing without diving into formatting or full structure.

In this class, you’ll:

  • Learn what sketch comedy is (and what it isn’t)
  • Get a clear overview of two common comedic scene types
  • Learn how to spot comedy ideas in everyday life
  • Brainstorm simple sketch ideas
  • Collaborate as a group to outline script ideas together

This class is meant to spark ideas, build confidence, and give you a clear sense of how our full program works - without writing assignments due - while leaving plenty more to explore.

Taught by experienced instructors with professional comedy and television writing backgrounds in a supportive, fun environment.

Class Size: Limited for individual attention
Length: 2 hours · Meets once in Los Angeles
Experience Level: Absolute beginners welcome

Spots are limited.
