“Tools for Political Humor Writing”
July 7, 2024
ABOUT: A workshop for participants who are new to writing comedy or curious about strategies for incorporating humor into writing about seemingly unfunny subjects. Participants will be presented with my personal rubric of strategies and some exercises to hone the “eye” for funny.
OVERVIEW: In this series of monthly, online Master Classes, participants will have an opportunity to learn a variety of ways to create community-based theatre for social justice. They will practice skills in political humor, storytelling, indigenous methodologies, collaborative playwriting & dramaturgy, best practices in partnering with stakeholders, and more. The topics explored will include impactful political activism; community-building; racial, disability and environmental justice; as well as LGBTQ+, women’s, immigration and voting rights; and more! All of the sessions will be highly interactive.
