Week after week my comedy class write and get up and deliver their comic musings, worries, thoughts, hopes, annoyances etc. I always think, what a shame nobody hears this material. And so I am trialling a class in front of a paying audience on Friday 24 November 2017. See details below:
Having a Crack: An experimental stand up comedy class at The Bike Shed Theatre

Come and see what
goes on behind the scenes in a stand up comedy class with a difference. Devon
Comedy Coach Maggie Irving is opening her classroom door for you to witness an
onstage stand up comedy workshop. The class members, from Exeter, Exmouth and
Torbay, will reveal a unique perspective on how they write and then deliver their
material with the all-important ‘attitude’, with the hope of getting a laugh.
Maggie requests
you join in with some of the writing tasks (if you wish) and perhaps satisfy
your comedic curiosity, generate confidence to write comic material and learn
how comedy performance requires a combo of factors to make it work.
This is a
brand-new venture. An experiment. Who knows what might happen? Your feedback is
vital.
