FADE IN: Comedy Writing Workshop with Wissam Kamal

Friday, Jan 29, 2016
Saturday, Jan 30, 2016
1:00pm -> 3:30pm
FADE IN:

Being funny is inside all of us. The goal of this comedy writing workshop is to help you find the funny inside of you. FADE IN: like to call this a “non-class class” because writing exercises and examples will be used to guide you, rather than teach you how to be funny. No prior experience in writing or in comedy is required; actually, the ideal participants just have that comedic passion.

Basics of different genres and writing will be covered as well as the essential concept behind comedy: embracing failure. Get ready to have fun and laugh (duh) and, make everyone around you do the same.
