SIT-COM BOOTCAMP will take you through the world of sit-com auditioning with exercises to improve timing, rhythm, set-ups, punch-lines, musicality and the all important "finding the funny". You'll work on being believable and discuss the nature of comedy as it relates to basic acting techniques. You'll also get info and background on everything from the 'audition process' to 'table-read' to 'behavior on-set' from an expert on both sides of the camera!

Richard Kline will be in Vancouver to perform his critically acclaimed one-man show Boychik in the 2006 Chutzpah! Festival.
