Funny Women readers might remember that back in February we ran our first ever Workshop Weekend – an action-packed two days of all things comedy, including workshops on writing, stand-up and even burlesque. We had a lot of fun – so much fun, in fact, that we’re doing it again! We’ll be returning to Covent Garden’s B-Hive Women's Business Club on the 13th and 14th July to bring some of the best comedy advice in the business to our workshop participants.
If you fancy yourself as the next Lucy Porter or Bridget Christie, or simply want to sharpen your funny bone and gain some new skills, we’ve got exciting news. We’ve teamed up with Mumsnet Bloggers, the online community of (funny) mummies to offer one lucky blogger a place on the weekend – free of charge! You don’t have to want to be the next big stand-up star to come along (although great if you do) – our workshops are designed to be fun, creative and boost your confidence in performance, work and everyday life. Read Lilias Martin's experience of the Workshop Weekend HERE.
