SUMMARY:Sketch Writing with The Kids in the Hall's Kevin McDonald!
DESCRIPTION:Spend a weekend learning sketch comedy from one of the best in the biz! Kevin McDonald—co-founder of The Kids in the Hall—returns to Seattle to teach you how to turn funny ideas into fully formed sketches. Whether you’re just starting out or leveling up your comedy writing\, this is a rare chance to workshop material with a true legend. \nYou have two ways to join: \nOption 1: One-Day Class – Saturday Only \nDate: Saturday\, September 27\nTime: 11:00pm – 3:00pm\nCost: $150 (plus fees)\nClass: One Line Premise\nIn this focused session\, you’ll bring a one-line sketch idea (e.g.\, “What if a guy was $10 short of being a millionaire?”) and Kevin will help you turn it into a sketch. Expect group feedback\, guidance on comedic structure\, and personalized notes from Kevin himself. \nThe Sunday class is not available without taking the Saturday class. \nOption 2: Full Weekend Intensive – Saturday & Sunday \nDates: Saturday\, September 27 & Sunday\, September 28\nTime: 11:00pm – 3:00pm both days\nCost: $230 (plus fees)\nClass: Writing for Sketch\nAfter Saturday’s premise class\, you’ll write a draft sketch overnight. Sunday is all about workshopping those brand-new scripts. Kevin will lead table reads and give detailed feedback on structure\, voice\, rewrites\, and punch-ups. \nLocation: 5700 6th Ave S Suite 109 Seattle. WA 98108 \nMaximum Students: 14 \nPrerequisite: None \nAges: 18 and above \nAbout the Instructor: Kevin McDonald has written for The Kids in the Hall\, The Martin Short Show\, and Saturday Night Live. This is his fourth workshop with Unexpected Productions. \nHe founded The Kids in the Hall with his friend Dave Foley. They met in Toronto at the Second City Training Center\, and the two wrote and performed in sketches together more than any other pair in the group. In the troupe’s TV show and stage shows\, he portrays several favorite recurring characters\, such as the King of Empty Promises\, Sir Simon Milligan\, and Jerry Sizzler. Still\, it’s a frequent running gag that McDonald is the least popular member and always struggling not to get kicked out. \nSince The Kids in the Hall’s end in 1994\, he’s played many roles in movies like Boy Meets Girl\, Agent Pleakley in the Lilo & Stitch series\, and Harry Potter in Epic Movie. On TV\, he has appeared on The Martin Short Show\, Ellen (as a radio personality)\, That ’70s Show (as a confused young cleric\, Pastor Dave)\, Seinfeld\, Friends\, NewsRadio (on which Foley starred)\, MADtv\, Arrested Development\, and Corner Gas. McDonald has also done voice work for various animated series\, including Invader Zim (in which he did the voice for Almighty Tallest Purple)\, The Angry Beavers\, Catscratch (in which he voiced Waffle)\, and Clerks: The Animated Series.
