Dallas Comedy Club Presents: Character Crash Course with Jon Bander
Character Crash Course
Want to create memorable solo characters from scratch? Great! This is the workshop to help you build bold, funny, fully-formed characters from the ground up.
In this class, you'll learn to stop overthinking and gain practical tools for:
Generating character ideas quickly
Finding voice, point of view, and comedic game
Making strong physical and emotional choices
Heightening and sustaining POV throughout
Turning half-formed ideas into tight scripts
Feel free to bring some ideas you already have, or just a notebook and your weird brain - we'll get silly and fun in a safe and supportive class setting. You'll leave with at least one new character for stage, video, or whatever you desire - and a repeatable process for creating many more.
Perfect for sketch performers, standups, improvisers, and anyone looking to expand their solo comedy toolkit.
Come ready to play, write, and get weird!
