Comedy Course (book) – Steve Shrott

Steve Shrott has been writing and performing comedy for twenty years. He runs many seminars on how to write humor as well as coaching executives on delivery. In his book he teaches you how to develop your own comedy style and material. Using examples and exercises, he takes the basic elements of comedy, defines and describes them and them builds them into jokes that work. He then goes into the structure of the monologue and ketch writing. This is not a book of ready made jokes. Each performer has to develop his own style, and the exercises presented here will help you do that. There are also valuable tips on marketing and where to sell the material you write. 6 x 9 – 61 pages – Illustrated .
