Ya know how a veteran comic sounds like he’s just talking and it’s hilarious? That is called “speaking in the language of stand-up”. And it comes from the ability to riff on-stage, using punchline dynamics naturally and creating material entirely in voice. There’s nothing more exciting than when a comedian goes off-book.

Crowd-Work & Riffing
Greg gives a great class, I love the student engagement. My only feedback would be to have the students participate in more (improv) exercises that have the students say/ ramble even more with less editing. This way, they can play with having even more flow, this would heighten the exercises that he administers in class. -
