Workshop: Short form comedy with Jonathan KatzIn this class Emmy-Award winning producer and comedian Jonathan Katz, creator of Comedy Central's "Dr. Katz: Professional Therapist" will help my students create a three and six minutes comedy. The way in which they do that is their choice. A sketch, a scene that they have written but want others to stage, a standup set for a TV audience, a short video or audio production.According to Jonathan, "comedy is subjective, so if I too think the idea and or the execution of the idea is funny, that is just a wonderful co-incidence." The class will run Sundays, November 8th - December 6th at 1:30 PM, $250 Registration is closed. |
