Love them or hate them, puns can be a fun challenge for performers of all types! Discover the technique and strategy behind using creative puns in comedy performance. In this workshop, you’ll explore the roles of wordplay in comedy, master different methods for creating puns, and practice using wordplay in different styles of performance. Whether you enjoy puns or not, the quick-thinking skills you will learn in this workshop will bring an exciting new edge to your material! All types of comedians are welcome and will come away with ideas to bring to an audience.
After a mildly successful high school speech and debate career and bombing out of the Tampa open mic scene, Dane’s comedy redemption arc began with improv in 2016. Since then, he’s graced the stage with construction-themed slam poetry, Jim Carrey impressions, and a 17th place finish in a national pun contest. A regular host of TGIF & Primetime, Dane uses his warm and calming presence to charm people into sharing their deepest secrets in a roomful of strangers. Otherwise, you can find him producing the improvised slideshow show People Presenting Things or drinking water on the patio couch.
