What We Offer
In addition to individual festival shows we also work on a variety of projects with schools and local comedians.
Our pioneering comedy projects; Loving Laughing and Laugh Term Comedy School provide an opportunity for children and young people to learn the basics of comedy performance and develop their own comedy set. Each project culminates in a live performance.
These projects can improve students language skills, self esteem, confidence, presentation skills and trust. They have a positive impact on mental health, well-being, and general success at school.
