One day. One shot. One mic. A Stand- Up Comedy Workshop with Rachel Berger
So, you think you’re funny? This is NOT a comedy-writing workshop but a rare and unique opportunity to draw on Rachel’s thirty years experience to help you understand your illogical self and what makes YOU funny? In order to be funny, you have to know and trust your comic-self on stage and that’s what this workshop is about – discovering your own funny!
Over six hours Rachel Berger will show you how to uncover the funny side of any situation. Is YOUR funny, temperament or talent? How do YOU engage your audience emotionally?
At the end of the workshop you’ll perform 5 minutes of Stand-Up comedy in front of a live audience, that SAME night!
