Creating Characters! is a course focused on developing a range of uniquely ridiculous characters all while building your comedy skills through writing, performing, and tailored feedback.

In this class you'll learn different strategies to come up with characters, as well as how to get the most comedy out of them. Classes culminate in a show where students will perform a showcase of character monologues.

Whether you're looking to learn a new skill, enhance your comedy skills, or develop characters for the stage or digital media, this class is for you!

Please note: Students will be expected to write and prepare characters outside of class each week. You will perform those characters! You will write AND perform!
