Open Mic Comedy Preparation Course Course Curriculum Canberra CBD
Roughly 95% of those signing up to do an open mic comedy room, bomb big time, and a large percentage of those, drop out of the comedy scene all together because the experience is so traumatic.
Yes, we realize there is a large group of people who say,” On TV, that looks easy, I can do that” but in reality, stand up comedy is a lot of things, but easy, isn’t one of them.
Yes, about 5% of those first timers, do ok or as some would say “Got lucky”.
We at the Las Vegas international School of Stand-up Comedy, don’t believe in luck. We believe in preparation + opportunity = success. If you prepare and get the opportunity to perform and you end up with a great performance, that’s not luck.
With over 50+ years of stage experience in Australia and the USA plus training over 1600 students across Australia since 2010, we’ve put together a fun but comprehensive open mic beginners’ course, preparing you for your first (or maybe your 2nd or 3rd if it hasn’t gone so well) open mic performance. In this 3-hour course, you will learn what you need to know to look and sound like a polished and seasoned open mic’r.
The difference between success and bombing is pre-industry preparation. You’ll learn everything you need to hit the stages like an organized pro. Enuff said.
Here’s what you will learn:
- Mic and mic stand technique and etiquette
- Room and voice control
- Rehearsal and practice techniques
- Joke Formula, Joke writing and structure
- Tips to improve memory and overcome stage fright
- In-class writing exercises
- Free copy of our latest national Open Mic Gig Guide
