Solo Show 101: 4-Week Workshop

In this 4-week workshop taught by Gabe Mollica, you'll learn the basics of writing and performing your very own solo show! You'll share personal stories, workshop ideas, receive feedback from Gabe and fellow students, watch and analyze longform performances from comedians like Mike Birbiglia and Hasan Minhaj, get practice performing on the Q.E.D. stage and, finally, perform at a "graduation" show with fellow students. The class is conducted on the Q.E.D. stage so you'll also get comfortable with holding a microphone and speaking in front of people. Guest speakers from the comedy and storytelling world may pop by, too!
