STOP PRESS!
Extra one off weekend course in March for £95!
You will notice below that our main courses are all either sold out or have a few spaces left over the next couple of months. We could maybe squeeze a couple more spaces per course but we are not willing to do that as it isn't fair on the other students. During January we arranged an extra course for students on the waiting and reserve list, which offered the same tutors, course content and hours but instead of doing the showcase at our main venue 'Up The Creek' in front of 200/300 people, instead their showcase was at our monthly comedy club at 'The London Theatre' in New Cross which holds 50 max. We also know that many want to do our course not just because of the quality of the tutors but also because they get the chance to play at an iconic comedy club like 'Up The Creek'. We also discovered that some new students on the reserve list actually jumped at the chance to get the same course but without the added pressure of playing to such a big crowd. (actually there is no differance in playing to a room of 300 or 50!) but we are happy, if they are happy thinking otherwise.
As we have a backlog of students again, we are doing an extra weekend course from 10am to 3pm each day (10 hours total) with the final showcase at 'The London Theatre'. This is the same course as our one the week before but without the 'Up The Creek' bit. The date of this extra weekend course is Saturday 31st March to Sunday 1st April. You will then perform on Tuesday 3rd April. You will have the same MC as the Up the Creek showcase. A new Travelodge has opened 400 yards from us called Travelodge Greenwich which has rooms from £60 per night per couple if booked in advance. It is opposite Deptford Bridge DLR station if you require a hotel for the night or a few nights.
This special weekend course is paid for in full at the time of booking. COST £95

The course fee covers all classroom time and course work handouts and you may each request an extra one to one session prior to your showcase if doing our Sunday or 6 week course providing you have reached the required standard to perform and submitted your finished material to the tutor. The inclusion of the 'Up The Creek' showcase is subject to reaching the required acceptable standard and will be subject also to full course attendance and being in a fit manor to perform on the night. A time restraint is put on each student in the showcase and this is made clear to each student during the course. Stage time is between 2 and 5 minutes depending on the course you are undertaking and the quality of the material produced.
There are a number of field trips during the course (ticket prices range from free to £5). Attendance on these trips is optional but advisable.
We do not provide a DVD of the showcase and although we often record the showcase this DVD does not form part of the contractual obligation of us and any such footage may be given to you for free subject to the restraints of the tutor.
