Straight Man / Crazy Man
Class Description:
We will dive deep into the "straight man / crazy man" kind of scene. We'll get into how to get good at both sides of it, how to indicate which side you think you're on, and a special focus on the elusive art of justifying. Take this only if you want to be funny every single time.
