How to Write Stand Up. Workbook for Perfect Performances

This practical book on honing stand-up skills has already earned recognition among comedians, and now it is also being published in Russian!
Creating humor is fun, but it is still hard work. And the more effort you put in, believes Gene Perrie, the more enjoyment you get from the process and the results themselves. The book features 87 exercises for practicing various skills that will be useful when creating stand-up monologues: from examples of setups and punchlines to improvisation and self-discipline. You will learn to work with metaphors, images, and plots, find inspiration in your daily routine, and most importantly, skillfully and effectively turn this into jokes that will resonate with the audience.
Gene Perrie's book will free you from the fear of not being funny and turn your talent into a craft that anyone can develop if they put in the effort. The softcover edition and lined pages will allow you to take the manual with you and practice anywhere, whenever you have the time and desire.
