  One-off stand-up comedy workshops

Jill runs uniquely inspiring one-off stand-up comedy workshops that
bring people together for organisations, charities, celebrations and
events across the country. You can give people a voice or boost their confidence or unite them in a common cause or bond a community. A one-off comedy workshop for non-comics designed to fit your needs will ensure an inspirational, exciting, fun and bonding event that people will not only enjoy but they will remember.

“Jill ran a workshop for us as part of Brighton’s Winter Pride
event, aimed at the LGBT community. The event sold out very
fast, got incredibly positive feedback from participants and some even made their stage debut at my show later that week and went down a storm with the audience. Jill’s ability to take participants from complete beginners to performing a short set in one day is remarkable. Accessible, engaging and great fun! Highly recommended.”

Steve Bustin, booker & compere, Bright’n’Queer. Workshop funded by “Pride.”

“Within minutes we were all learning the basics of stand-up
comedy. The safe and friendly environment that Jill fosters soon had everyone feeling at ease and comfortable performing on stage. I really felt I’d achieved something. Jill’s guidance and coaching methods made it easy to learn and unlock the potential comic within.”

Workshop participant Richard Sawyer, Training Director, Estee Lauder

“I was searching for a confidence booster to get me back to
work after a career break. I thought if I could stand on stage and make people laugh it would be a morale booster and give me some confidence in interviews. The unexpected buzz and joy I got from being on stage telling jokes I had written myself made me euphoric. My life literally changed, the thing I got from Jill’s workshop was always try things, don’t let your fears overwhelm you.“

Bola Ajani, participant in one-off comedy workshop for local black,
Asian and mixed-race women as part of a radio project for BBC
Southern Counties.
