Quirky Comedy Workshop

How would you like to learn a few secrets that only the best comics and clowns know? Let’s face it – being funny can be a serious business. It takes teamwork, listening and learning how to ‘go-with-the-flow’.

Wednesday 3 April | 1pm | GPAC Town Hall Theatre

Led by professional Clown Doctor, and funny-specialist - Kayla Hamill, this specially designed workshop is for teenagers of all abilities and social skills, the outgoing and the introverted. That’s because there’s a whole lot more to comedy than meets the eye. Comedy can be a story, a character, a situation, or a combination of all these. Everyone has something unique to offer, and through a series of carefully planned and inclusive games and activities, you’ll learn how to delight an audience, and each other, with your own brand of weirdness, generosity, adaptability, and kindness.  

The workshop concludes with a short presentation for family and friends.   

In this workshop you can expect applause, laughter, eye contact, games, character work, group, partner, and solo work.
