Stand Up Comedy Writing Workshop with Mike Sheer

The Athens English Comedy Club is hosting TWO comedy workshops this November, presented by London based comedian Mike Sheer!

We are excited to welcome Mike back after his workshops in 2023 and 2024, this time for two more classes!

📅 Sunday November 30th - STAND UP COMEDY WRITING

Mike's performed his critically acclaimed jokes and delivered writing workshops around the globe. He brings his experience, systems, and passion to Athens for a third collaboration with local heroes Athens English Comedy Club.

This workshop is framed around his 4 Key Pillars of comedy writing.

✍️ Get stuck into writing exercises & prompts designed to fuel creativity, mine your authenticity, and have you surprise yourself

✍️ Explore comedy philosophies, intentions, and techniques with like-minded people

✍️ Simplify your process of finding what's funny

This is all about helping you find and strengthen YOUR voice.

There will be a pre-game questionnaire to fill in that will help you get the most out of your experience.

Here's what recent attendees have said:

"Mike is a passionate teacher with really great insights and tools that can help you to hone your writing skills. His Stand-Up Comedy Writing Workshop helped me to understand how to take apart, examine, and reconfigure my jokes to be funnier and have bigger impact, and I left with a better understanding of what makes funny, funny. I highly recommend his workshops." - Tim

"This seminar was great! I was introduced to new ways of writing and organizing my work. Mike is an excellent teacher and was able to make us feel comfortable throughout the process without leaving not one question un-answered!" - Panos

"Mike Sheer makes the art of stand up accessible so that (any)one can tangle it with ease, avoiding pittfalls and even having fun on the way. I've attended two of his workshops and will gladly attend even more." - Lefthiris

"Fantastic workshop - a lot of workshops leave me inspired but this one left me inspired AND gave me the tools to put that inspiration into practice. Thank you, Mike!!!" - Paggy
