LA-based Roast Battle legends Brian Moses and Pat Barker are in town for two monumental shows, and will hold this unique masterclass on Roast writing.
This session will cover:
- What are the key elements to a powerful roast joke
- The importance of editing and keeping it punchy
- Analysing good and not-so-good battles , showing key things to watch out for
- Stage presence and finding your Roast persona
- Fun anecdotes from behind the scenes of the Roast world
Along with Jeff Ross, Brian Moses was the original creator of the infamous Roast Battle format, where pairs of comedians trade insults with each other on stage - like a boxing match with words. He went on to host the Comedy Central Roast Battle shows in the US and the UK.
Pat Barker is the Commissioner of the Global Roast Battle League (RBL), which sees 16 different cities (including Barcelona) compete over several months for the World Championship. Pat recently wrote jokes for the Roast of Tom Brady on Netflix
This workshop is suitable for people of all levels. Whether you’re a seasoned Roast battler, or even a non-comedian who’s a fan of Roast Battle and interested in the art of crafting the perfect insult.
