SNL Audition: Characters and Impersonations
Instructor: Ali Farahnakian
An SNL audition consists of three characters and three impersonations, plain and simple. This class will help you develop and master at least one of each. Students will come prepared with original characters and impersonations already in mind (not necessarily developed, but thought-out). For characters, we will work on in-depth backgrounds and histories, ultimately putting together something that works in 45 seconds. For the impersonations, we will find the celebrities that you are best suited for by your natural vocal range and similar look. Students will also improvise with each other as the characters and the people they are impersonating. The class will culminate in a show where each member of the class will put together a 5 minute piece to be performed live.
January 6-February 10 (6 weeks)
Thursdays, 7-10pm
$400
