Doors at 7:00 PM || Writing at 7:30 PM || FREE Creative Experience
Please bring: Your sense of humor, something to write on, and something to write with!
Participants get a complimentary beverage or a drink coupon for a future Sherbino program, because comedy should be loose, not thirsty!
Looking to stretch your creative muscles? Just want some free funny on a Wednesday night? You’re in luck! The Sherbino is launching a brand-new program: Sherbino Writers Room: Sketch Comedy!
Led by long-time Sherbino Night Live writer and local comedic comrade Lexi Trachy, this drop-in writing group welcomes anyone interested in writing (or just laughing through) sketch comedy. Whether you’re a seasoned joke-slinger or just sketch-curious, no experience is necessary; everyone is welcome!
August Meetings: Aug 6 & 20, 7:30 - 9 pm.
What to expect from a Writers Room session:
Table reads of group work
Group idea sharing and editing
Brainstorming games and inspiration exercises
Collaborative idea-sharing
Laughs (hopefully)
What’s the end goal? That’s up to the group! Maybe it’s reviving Sherbino Night Live. Maybe it’s developing a shared curriculum for “real learning” and honing the craft. Or perhaps it’s just creating hilarious sketches for fun.
Let’s get writing. Let’s get weird. Let’s get funny again.
