Think you’re “not funny”? Think again. Comedy isn't about trying to be funny—it's about making smart, grounded choices and knowing how to play. Whether you're nervous about comedic scenes or just want to sharpen your instincts, this workshop will help you find your rhythm and your confidence.
We’ll dive into the unique challenges of acting in comedy, especially in scenes with multiple characters, and give you tools to stay connected, responsive, and present.
What you’ll explore:
· How to make clear, comedic choices without pushing for laughs
· Finding your natural sense of play and timing
· Navigating scenes with multiple scene partners
· Owning your space in a comedic ensemble
If you've got a pull towards comedy—or it’s something you’ve struggled with—this is your chance to break through and discover what makes you funny.
