About this Event
About: Write jokes on any topic at any time, with proven techniques and tricks of professional comedy writers. Learn timing, joke construction, premise development and how to work around writer's block and not feeling inspired. Mike guarantees you'll write an original joke in the first 10 minutes, and have a notebook full of unique bits and premises by the end of the workshop. Class will run for 4 consecutive Saturdays starting January 10th - January 31st, from 10 AM - 1 PM.
Your Facilitator: Hundreds of comedians, comedy writers, advertising execs and regular folks have taken Mike's workshops and swear by his simple and fun joke writing techniques. His experience includes decades as a television comedy writer, as well as a lifetime as a stand up comic. He's performing around the world, on HBO and podcasts, and multiple appearances on the Tonight Show.
