Acting for Beginners: Sketch comedy - Nov 2022

In this short course you will develop your skills in improvisation and comedy, working to create short comic sketches, applying comic technique and building a toolkit of comic characters. This course is the perfect way to brighten up those winter evenings! Throughout the course you will be working with scene partners (not to worry, it's not stand-up) to create short comic sketches designed for maximum hilarity. Think 'Smack the pony', 'Little Britain' or 'Foil, Arms and Hogg'!

Our Beginners Acting Courses for Adults offer an introduction to acting in a friendly and supportive atmosphere. Ideal for those with little or no acting experience, classes provide the chance to explore acting technique in a playful, accessible and practical way. Whether you are an aspiring performer; wish to revitalise your creativity; or simply want to try something new and build self-confidence, you will find our classes fun and rewarding.
