The best comedy writing in the entertainment industry is done on sitcoms. But sitcoms are NOT about stringing together a lot of jokes. They are comic short stories, and they have a unique, highly structured form. The trick is knowing the sitcom story structures that actually produce the laughs, writing comedy from character, and playing with the ongoing web of comic oppositions.
The
SITCOM COURSE is one of Truby's Writers Studio's most popular, because it shows you all the elements of character, structure, scene and dialogue of this popular form. No other book or course has the depth or breadth of this class. Students range from those trying to break in with a spec script to those established pros who want to learn how to create their own sitcom.
