In this play shop, we explore the improvisational dimensions and creative aspect of spiritual stand-up comedy – how is it different from other forms of comedy, what makes it ‘spiritual’, the effect we have on our audience and the therapeutic benefits of laughter. Participants will learn to utilize it to serve as a powerful platform for social activism and how to develop their own unique, authentic style of delivery, using facial expressions, vocal intonation, movement dialog, props and more.

It has been said ‘Whatever you can’t laugh at, owns you’. With this view, you will be invited to engage in your ‘stuff’, to explore humor as a healing technique in your life. Participants will be given the opportunity to perform in front of a live audience.

Highlights:

A)     Spiritual Stand-Up Comedy-

Definition, Preparation & Groundwork, Creating Sacred Space & Intention

B)     Preparation of Material-  Sourcing, Writing, Testing

C)     Developing Your Own Style-

Authenticity, Characterization, Vocalization, Nuancing, Accenting

D)     Releasing Fear of Performing – Learn several special techniques to build confidence, increase creativity and conquer your fears.

E)      Comedy Therapy- Exploration, Healing, Releasing, Opening and Creative Self-Expression

F)      Live Performance and Evaluation – A chance to release your fears and actually perform. Your peers will offer constructive evaluation.

They are here to guide us into living lives of harmony, love and peace in spite of the divine chaos that we see in our world. Veenaa will channel messages from the dolphins, who speak through her very frequently. They have delighted people from Canada to California, from Arizona to Australia, with their loving guidance and magical energy.
