Using shared stories and guided exercises, improv, and discussion, students will develop character, structure, and a creative voice while building confidence and empathy. The focus is on process over product—valuing authentic expression, thoughtful storytelling, and collaboration. Students will have the opportunity for a table read of their final work.

This spring students will explore elements of comedy, writing, and on-camera work.

Artists will collaboratively write, rehearse, and film short, original sketches. The process centers on creating without concern for reception—writing from an authentic place and valuing internal joy and self-expression over applause—while building confidence, developing a creative voice for film, all while having a blast in a judgment free and safe space.
