This course is an introduction to the UCB philosophy on sketch comedy, specifically using “the game†to write short comedic scenes. Each week students will engage in writing exercises that will explore different sketch formats. Students will be exposed to different methods for turning funny ideas into even funnier written sketches. Students will leave the class with an understanding of popular sketch formats and a portfolio of writing.
No prior sketch writing experience is necessary – the only requirement for this class is a desire to write and learn. Students should be prepared to work outside of class, preparing sketches for presentation in every class. Students will be required to see two live sketch shows before the end of the course.
Class Size: 12 Students No class September 5th.

Caitlin Tegart is a writer and sketch teacher who has been studying at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre since 2006. Caitlin wrote two concurrently running shows at the UCB: the sketch show "How Rude: Tim & D'Arcy Find the 90s" and the one-act play "Waiting for Obama: A Night at the Hall of Presidents," in which animatronic presidents come alive to discuss Civil Rights and the Lion King (you know, like they do in real life). The latter show made an epic West Coast journey to UCB Los Angeles and the San Francisco SketchFest.
As a proud alumni of the UCB sketch team Stone Cold Fox, Caitlin wrote for Maude Night (creating a brand new show every month). She currently writes for UCB's weekend sketch show “Beneath Gristedes" and the Beta team Diamonds, Wow! Her web series "Rhonda Casting" can be seen at omgoose.com.
Much like Vivica A. Fox, Caitlin is from Indiana.
