Due to popular demand, Mad Cow Comedy has invited Adam Bloom back! This will be the 5th Masterclass he's done in Utrecht (which is actually more than he's done in any other city!). Book quickly to avoid disappointment - the last ones sold out in just a few hours.
Adam Bloom is a multi-award-winning comedian and ghostwriter with over 30 years' experience in comedy. In September 2023, he released the groundbreaking book, ‘Finding Your Comic Genius’. It has since proven to be the first ever truly advanced book on stand-up comedy. Within a year it reached #1 best-seller in the category of ‘Stagecraft’ in the U.K, the U.S, Canada & Australia. Adam has hosted over 60 book masterclasses in 13 different countries across Europe & Asia as well as virtual ones in the U.S, Canada & China.
The masterclasses are in the form of a Q&A that lasts from 11am-6pm (including breaks). The outcome is that comedians of all experiences walk away with a much deeper understanding of Adam’s methods and theories on writing and performing stand-up.
It’s highly recommended that you purchase a copy of this book in advance of the workshop, which you can also get Adam to sign for you! This book is available for sale via Amazon.nl: https://amzn.eu/d/4viUrgW
The book is now also available at as an Audio Book (read by several well-know, great comedians): https://tinyurl.com/y3nsdsa2
At the end of each masterclass, everyone walks away buzzing and inspired to work on new material, tweak existing material and considering changes to their style of comedy and personas.
Masterclasses are limited to 12 attendees to keep them intimate.
The Masterclass will take place at de Schuur in Utrecht; a private creative space located at Ledig Erf (around the corner from the Louis Hartloper Complex and a short walk from Station Vaartsche Rijn)
