This book is an intersectional, spiritual, self-improvement approach to stand-up comedy. It was created to create inclusive comedy while still retaining the edge and expression of regular stand-up.
It's about using what you joke about to reveal what you're processing. How can you use comedy to explore the limiting thoughts and repressed emotions holding you back? Learn to pivot our perspective and roll with the punchlines. Find a way to use comedy to add more levity to your life.
Here is a little preview of what you will learn...
- How your purpose puts you in position for performing stand-up successfully*
- How to rehearse*
- Quick do's and don'ts tips on how to rehearse*
- What to do when you're bombing*
- How to handle bombing on stage*
- And much more!
You will learn how to get booked into top clubs, how to create perfect promotional material, how to ace an audition, and how to avoid becoming a statistic. You will also learn what jokes not to tell, what food to not eat at a comedy condo and how careers can be ruined before even picking up the microphone.
Sabo doesn't have his own sitcom or netflix special; what he does have is a wealth of comedy experience and the scars to prove it. This book is a must read for any aspiring comic, established comedian or fan of stand-up.
