Advanced stand-up comedy workshop
Jill’s invaluable, purely practical and one of a kind Advanced Stand-Up Comedy Workshop is currently based at multiple award winning venue Upstairs at Three and Ten, Brighton.
It's exclusively for participants who complete Jill's foundation comedy course and who are serious about giving stand-up a shot. They can apply to join this ongoing Monday night workshop to get the support, guidance, gigs and contacts they need to carve out a career in comedy.
Jill encourages and supports them to develop until they find their feet on the comedy circuit. They gain access to an established network of graduates working in all areas of the comedy business, including a network of new act nights and clubs in Brighton, London and nationally.
“The mark of a good teacher is how they tailor their methods to meet the needs of each individual student. Jill understands that there are as many different kinds of comedian as there are kinds of people, so doesn’t apply a one-size-fits-all approach to teaching, but a detailed and individual schooling. And the change she brings about in her students has to be seen to be believed. Of course comedy is an elusive and imprecise science, but Jill offers techniques and exercises that can develop the fledgling comic’s talent or refine even the most experienced comedian’s material. It’s a great experience and I can’t recommend it enough.”
