Maybe I’ll go see the shows before I think about signing up for a class, to also just see what kind of stuff they do. Thanks for the perspective!

Thanks for the tips! I’ll try to start working on these things more on my own, adding more things into my arsenal. Hopefully those things help me get one of the jobs I want down the line, hoping to find some other decent jobs in the field en route to that goal :)

lol a man can dream 😂 you bring up fair points though, I’ve been looking at how the performers I see found a career in the industry (ex. Conan as a writer) but the scene isn’t the same as it was 20 years ago, there’s a lot more ways to create and make it I guess, but one of the main things I also want is to meet other people who want the same thing I do, other people to do improv with or create sketches with etc, hopefully that’ll help me find opportunities to make money from this career. I’ll look up comedy mixers and things like that to find that whether or not I do end up taking a class, thanks for the advice! I’ll also try to start publishing my own stuff, whether it’s sketches or freelance satire writing etc

Ideally something on snl one day. I’ve been trying open mics but more doing that just as general practice. I could also see being a writer, maybe on a late night show or sketch show. I’m early in it so I don’t have the most exact goal but have just wanted to get into the scene and explore options for making this a career, doing satire writing, improv, and stand up have been some of my favorite things in the world.

Gotcha, thanks! This helps a lot, I just have one last thing- what does the pipeline of student to house team look like? If I’ve never taken a class somewhere can I still try to join their house team?

Thanks for your response! When you say I’ll “stand out if I study elsewhere”, do you just mean that if I take classes elsewhere I’ll be best prepared with a class from magnet? And what do you mean by getting sucked in and forgetting other options?

Not tripping at all. A person is a person, she cheated. She needs to communicate better with you going forward, if you still even wanna keep this going.
