“Not only is Stand Out a great initiative to introduce kids into the world of performing and writing comedy it is also a brilliant avenue for them to direct their talents knowing that there is an end result”

Patron of The Comedy Trust
"The Stand Out project is a brilliant idea. If it had existed when I was at school it would have been a massive help. Young people should be encouraged to follow their dream. Long may Stand Out continue."
