Ich verrate Dir, wie ich mit Robert McKee in die Kunst des Storytellings eintauchte und wir dabei Serien wie Breaking Bad oder Filme wie Casablanca analysierten. Und Du erfährst und hörst, wie mich Workshops und Coachings am American Comedy Institute zum Schritt auf die Stand-Up Bühne in New York brachten und ich im Gotham Comedy Club mit meinem ersten Set auf Englisch Premiere feiern konnte. Klar, dass ich Dich da auch in ein paar exklusive Ausschnitte reinhören lasse. Viel Spaß!

Mein Monat in New York war eine ganz besondere Erfahrung für mich. Während sich in Deutschland oft zweifelnde Stimmen heben, wenn Du von neuen Vorhaben berichtest, begegnet Dir in New York eine optimistisch gestimmte Just-do-it Kultur. In dieser Folge NONSTOP NOMMSEN nehme ich Dich mit durch meinen Monat New York und erzähle Dir, wie ich vom deutschen Moderator zum Stand-Up Comedian auf den Bühnen am Broadway wurde. Ich verrate Dir, wie ich mit Robert McKee in die Kunst des Storytellings eintauchte und wir dabei Serien wie Breaking Bad oder Filme wie Casablanca analysierten. Und Du erfährst und hörst, wie mich Workshops und Coachings am American Comedy Institute zum Schritt auf die Stand-Up Bühne in New York brachten und ich im Gotham Comedy Club mit meinem ersten Set auf Englisch Premiere feiern konnte.

Stephen Rosenfield is the founding director of the American Comedy Institute and his alumni are as diverse as Jim Gaffigan and Lena Dunham – talk about opposite ends of the spectrum! In his book, he writes about the different types of comedy and comedians, and breaks down the techniques and behind-the-scenes details that can make or break a modern comedian. I’m not interested in jumping onstage, but I’m fascinated by stand-ups and their careers. I found "Mastering Stand-Up" to be compelling.

Andreea nu își dorea neapărat să facă standup comedy dar a fost la niște cursuri de teatru și oamenii de acolo i-au spus că ar fi bine să încerce. După niște consultări cu un comediant român, ajunsă la New York, s-a înscris la un curs de o săptămână la American Comedy Institute. I-a placut acolo și s-a reîntors apoi la NY pentru un alt curs de aproape un an. A urcat pe scena cluburilor Gotham, Broadway Comedy Club, Greenwich Village si New York Comedy Club.
