Does it feel like the whole world is crazy, and things might get better if we could all just listen to each other? Have you noticed that presenting facts rarely gets someone to change their mind? Comedy and social satire are most needed during these times. When minds are closed, comedy and satire can provide a back door in and plant the seeds of change.

In this class, we will craft short scenes, stories and comic bits that communicate complex ideas. Humor, current events and positive change go hand-in-hand in a class devoted to understanding and creating comedic moments that challenge the status quo.

From dissecting headlines to discussing personal experiences, participants will delve into the intricacies of illustrating an idea through plot, dialogue, characters, casting choices, and content format. This is a great opportunity to learn the boundary between funny and inappropriate and understand the history behind cancel culture. Whether you are interested in sharpening your writing skills, creating social media content, or exploring the dramatic arts, this class promises to be a laughter-filled exploration of the intersection between art and social science.
