SuperKomedy at Superkhana with Sonal Aggarwal!
What is a joke? What is it to laugh? Who is allowed to laugh!
In this three hour workshop we will learn the basic principles of stand up comedy and the structure of a joke. We will cultivate our sense of humor into a super power, taking the raw materials of this human experience and giving them expression through laughter and our words.
One's sense of humor is very personal. You can't learn ‘to be funny,' because 'funny' is subjective, like smell, touch, or any of our other senses. You like smells that other people think are gross! It doesn't matter what other people think, and it doesn't matter if other people think you are funny. It matters what YOU think.
This class will help you to focus on your own experience. It will give you a sense of confidence in your voice and teach you new communication skills. And, you will learn how to write a joke!
