Course Aims & Outline
From the blank page to the stage...

This course will give you space to write &/or perform comedy – with input & workshops from a professional comedian – who will help get your gags onto the stage; whether it’s your sitcom or you under the spotlight.

Sarah's workshops will cover the journey from writer to performer - with equal stress on both disciplines including work on the genesis of ideas, structure, editing and the technical aspects of writing and editing a 'stand-up' set ! There will also be performances by anyone willing to try stand-up and readings of material produced during the course (this is obviously optional).

Stand-up.
After years of putting the pen through it’s paces Sarah has been performing stand-up and winning awards for it. She is perfectly placed to tutor you in the skills of joke telling and delivering gags. Our stand-up workshops will give you the whole comedy kitbag in performing and preparing material. Sarah's course will cover all aspects of performing and preparing material - and tips on getting booked !

"day one I was looking at a blank piece of paper... I hadn't picked up a pen since school... 3 days later I was doing a set-not just a one-liner but a whole set; my first audience with laughter..."
