PERFORMANCES FROM THE BOOK

Eight chapters in John's book, "Innovation at the Speed of Laughter" begin with a Brave New Workshop Comedy Theatre script.

Below you will find audio and/or video clips of the sketches, as well as hard copies of the scripts. All materials are copyright Brave New Workshop.

Patience may be required. We erred on the side of quality and including the entire performance, rather than literal speed.
