Stand-up comedy workshop

Join Bee Baumann for a dynamic 7-week introduction to the art of stand-up comedy. You’ll discover the fundamentals of comedic writing and performance while gaining more confidence on stage. Each session includes warm-ups and creativity exercises, guided idea development and practical techniques for timing, delivery and stage presence. Over the course of the workshop, everyone will develop their own original material and refine it through practice, feedback and supportive group work. The workshop concludes with a live stage performance where participants can present their newly acquired skills to an audience.
