Writing Your One Person Showcase
December 20 @ 11:00 am - 2:00 pm
$100
Have a fledging idea for a solo show but no idea where to start?
Sick of playing roles that are boring and ready to craft content in your own voice for a solo show that makes you shine?
Have a burning desire to share all your deepest darkest secrets onstage but are completely terrified and it would be easier to sink your eyes into your tiny phone screen and just die?
Look no further.
Join Austin’s very own Katie Folger, for a writing intensive and crash course on solo show production and performance at UCB Austin. Now based in LA, Katie will share her tricks of the trade– what to do, what not to do– that she had to learn, often the hard way, in taking her indie show from a backyard reading in Austin to a five star hit selling out in Los Angeles, Austin, EdFringe, next to Amy Schumer in NOLA; landing her top tier managers bi-coastally; and now pitching a spinoff TV series to Hollywood execs for development.
Bring your questions, fears, doubts, heart, and pencils. Through writing prompts, sharing, and lecture, we’ll lean into instincts and the truth in comedy to find laughs and wisdom in your writing. You’ll walk away from this workshop with a clearer approach to producing your show and some new, fine-tuned material that you can feel excited about taking further.
