Sketch It!
Whet your appetite for scripted comedy with this 5-week class! Sketch It! focuses on generating strong premises, writing with focus & rewriting based on in-class feedback, all in a fun and collaborative environment! Students will also work on rehearsing and performing the sketches written for class to produce a one-hour fully fledged graduation sketch show at the end of their 5 weeks together!
Students should be prepared to devote time outside of class to working on projects, as well as share their work in class.
