Learning Activity:
Students will choose a topic that is important to them, and create a stand-up comedy routine about that topic. Just like Aziz, they will practice their material, make decisions about what kind of tools and technology they will need for their performance, and will perform it for the rest of the group.
Some tips from Aziz’s biography:
- Decide what kind of atmosphere you are creating; an intimate one, or a movie-goer experience
- Don’t rely on cultural heritage for the sake of being funny
- Stand up for what you believe in
- Try out your routine on test audiences
- Take control of the space; think about camera angles
The routine should last 5-10 minutes, and this activity should take about 2 hours from start to finish, not including performances.
