Open Up The Mic
Open Up The Mic
Kontenido
This playlist supports young people to explore stand-up comedy as an art form—writing jokes, performing, analysing comedians, and sharing comedy skills with others and forms a part of Open Up The Mic training courses for young people and delivered by BlackLiver with the support of ShowTown Museum, Think Forward and funding from Arts Council England. The playlist and learning and reflection action activities allow young people to provide evidence that can go towards a Bronze Arts Award.
You’ll build:
● Confidence performing in front of others
● Comedy writing skills (jokes, timing, storytelling)
● Critical thinking (reviewing comedy)
● Understanding of professional comedians
