The Gauntlet is an exercise for comics to workshop their unique perspective and develop new material on the fly.
One by one each comic takes the stage and gets a minute on random topics shared by their peers. After each 3-4 minute set, you’ll get feedback. Which topics should you pursue? Did you discover a new premise? A past Gauntlet student described the process as “20 open mics rolled into one.”
Leave your material at home. Bring paper, a pen, and an open mind.
Each student will get multiple sets on stage.
