Five Star Gift Ideas

For your daughter who loves sketch comedy and improvisation, I have a few fun and creative gift ideas that she will surely appreciate:

1. Improv Classes: Consider gifting her a set of improv classes. This will allow her to enhance her skills, learn new techniques, and have a chance to perform in front of an audience. Improv classes can also be a great way for her to meet like-minded people and build her network in the comedy industry.

2. Sketch Comedy Workshop: Look for a sketch comedy workshop or intensive in your area. This will give your daughter a chance to learn from professionals in the field, develop her writing and performing skills, and polish her comedic timing. She will love the opportunity to dive deeper into her passion for sketch comedy.

3. Books on Comedy Writing: There are numerous books available that provide valuable insights into comedy writing and improvisation. Consider gifting her some popular titles such as "Truth in Comedy" by Charna Halpern, "Comedy Writing for Late-Night TV" by Joe Toplyn, or "Writing Television Sitcoms" by Evan S. Smith. These books offer tips, exercises, and guidance for honing her comedic skills.

4. Comedy Show Tickets: Treat your daughter to a live comedy show of her favorite sketch comedy group or improvisational troupe. She will have a chance to watch her comedy inspirations perform live, and it could also serve as a source of entertainment and inspiration for her own comedic pursuits.

5. Subscription to a Comedy Streaming Platform: Consider getting her a subscription to a comedy streaming platform like Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon Prime Video. These platforms offer a wide range of comedy content, including sketch shows, stand-up specials, and improv performances. This way, she can indulge in her favorite comedy content anytime she wants.

6. Improv Comedy Board Game: There are several board games available that revolve around improv comedy, such as "The MetaGame," "Who's the Dude?," or "Comedy Central's Jokes on You." These games allow players to create and perform their own improvised sketches, providing a fun and interactive way for your daughter to practice her skills while having a great time with friends and family.

7. Customized Sketch Comedy Notebook: Consider gifting her a personalized notebook specifically designed for sketch comedy. You can add a funny quote or her name on the front cover and fill a few initial pages with writing prompts or inspirational sketches. This will encourage her to jot down her ideas, brainstorm new sketches, and keep her creative process organized.

Remember, the key is to cater to her love for sketch comedy and improvisation. Whether you choose to provide her with tools for learning, experiences to grow and perform, or simply entertainment to enjoy, any of these thoughtful gifts will surely show her how much you support her passion for comedy.

Or you can get her a star map with the date when she was born.

Luann Skinner says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“I ordered the star map 8 days before my daughter's birthday. It arrived in 7 days just in time for her birthday. Thank you! She loved the star map.”
