Couch to Mic - Teen Edition has all of the structure and style of the adult class, but in an environment created specifically for teens. In this five-week comedy performance workshop, participants write, rehearse, and perform their own, original 5 minutes of comedy. This workshop culminates in a live performance.
Participants are guided in a supportive and brave environment where each person is encouraged to discover their unique comedic voice. Stephanie Lazenby has years of experience creating theater and comedy with teens and believes that comedy - especially for this age group- can be a powerful tool to understand themselves and connect with each other and the world around them.
Please note:
- Workshop is four weeks - each workshop session is two hours.
- All workshop participants are required to perform at the live show on week five.
- All classes and the performance are held at 3S Artspace.
- At each workshop session, participants will share their progress with the class.
- All levels: This workshop series of Couch to Mic is open to those who are new to the Couch to Mic, as well as return participants! Due to the high demand for this workshop, if you are a proud Couch to Mic alum, please wait two sessions before registering for another session. We want to share the love AND have you back!
- Couch to Mic is a workshop where everyone supports each other to create an unforgettable night of entertainment.
