You will prepare a seven minute set that you'll perform live!

Workshop Format

(A digital voice recorder or video camera is a must for classes 1-4)

Class #1 - Come in with several ideas/setups/premises you want to develop into a 7 minute set. In addition to material, you can use your time in class to achieve any goals, like: dealing with hecklers, developing characters, preparing to be an Opener or MC, and so on. After the initial meet and greet, you will spend 7 minutes on stage, and then get feedback from Joe and the class.
