A Stand-Up Intensive with Judy Carter and l’Académie d’Humour
Author of the international bestsellers The Comedy Bible, The Message of You, and Making Money Being Funny.
Anyone can learn joke formulas. The comedians who get remembered develop something much harder to copy: a unique voice.
Your greatest comedy material isn't hidden in books. It's hidden inside your own experiences, frustrations, failures, relationships, and observations. When you transform them into stand-up, audiences don't just laugh — they connect.
In these dynamic, hands-on workshops, internationally acclaimed author, comedian, and teacher Judy Carter will help you find your most original and authentic material — material that sounds unmistakably like you. Through live writing exercises, performance coaching, and real-time feedback, you'll discover your personal comic point of view.
What you'll work on:
• The first 17 seconds: grabbing attention
• Developing a unique comic point of view
• Turning your biggest messes into unforgettable moments
• Writing stronger act-outs, dialogue, call-backs, and punchlines
• Mastering stage anxiety
