SUMMARY:The Writer's Room: Sketch Writing Workshop w/ Ann Maddox
DESCRIPTION:Sketch writers! Interested in submitting for next year’s Hawaii Sketch Comedy Festival? Or write your own sketch show? Have sketches you like but not sure if they work? Join us in the writer’s room! \nWe will go through your sketches with a table read\, find a game that best fits your idea\, and then as a group pitch jokes for it as you would in a writers room. We will then spend the remainder of the class working on pitching sketch ideas and finding either a solid game for you to follow\, or form a basic outline for your sketch. \nPlease bring with you:\nNotebook and pen to take notes.\nOne sketch and at least four copies to read with the class. (If your sketch has a lot of characters maybe consider bringing an extra copy)\nPitches for sketch ideas! \nAbout the Instructor:\nAnn Maddox has performed at the UCB Theater in Los Angeles since 2005\, in several sketch shows such as Baby Hungry\, Charlyne Yi Show\, UCB presents\, Other people’s stuff\, Make That Sandwich! and most recently\, the one act sketch play Talking Is Hard\, which just finished it’s year long run at UCB.\nShe has also performed improv on the Harold team Lincoln’s Bedroom and wrote sketch comedy for Maude Teams Nice Kitchen and Hot Mess.
