TESTIMONIALS
"I cannot recommend the stand up course for beginners enough . For a minimum commitment of time, you get a fantastic introduction to stand up in a friendly environment with brilliant support . The people on my course came from a wide range of backgrounds and everyone gained massively in confidence over the course . If you've ever even vaguely thought about doing comedy, you have to do this course."
