Workshops are run by national circuit comedian Anthony King (www.akstandup.com) who has worked on the top level of the U.K. circuit for 20 years.
"Doing the workshop is the best thing I've ever
done. I wanted to try the course to become more confident, but little did I know that Anthony would help me unlock the dark
and disturbing material within my brain for profit and local fame. In all seriousness, the most fun I've ever had on a
Tuesday night and the most positive decision I've ever made for my own mental wellbeing, ever. Sign up, sign up now."
Jim Smallman (Leicester Workshop, Spring 2005)

Workshop Feedback:
"The workshop with Anthony
was fantastic! I'm really looking forward to the others. He made it great fun and very productive but it was also really
structured. The kids loved it and emailed me when they got home to say how much they enjoyed it."
Korrin Smith - Education Officer, Royal and Derngate Theatres, Northampton
"How
many 8 week courses change your life? I went on this course, to try and get rid of my nerves for standing up and giving reports
in front of people in my new job! My experience with Anthony's workshop in Lincoln has conquered this, and also made me
seriously want to take up stand-up comedy for real!"
Jonathan Dilley Lincoln
"I'd thought about doing stand-up
for years, but always bottled it. The workshop and Anthony's constructive feedback gave me the confidence to just go out
there and do it. Now the workshop has finished, Monday night's seem a little boring, now I'm not sat in room, with
six very funny people, laughing my socks off. Top stuff".
Stuart Wilde, Lincoln
"...excellent workshop leader, and a very funny
(though darkly troubling) man..."
Jamie Smart
"After attending the workshops, I'm convinced that Anthony's experience and his
subtle style of assistance and encouragement would help absolutely anyone to produce, develop and perform 5 minutes of original
material. He's a nice chap as well."
Gary Mawby
"Doing Anthony's course gave me the opportunity to
learn how to perform stand-up, something I'd wanted to try but something I could not imagine myself doing. The course
helped me gain enough confidence to express my ideas and get regular gigs."
Mark Charlton (Leicester Workshops)
"Anthony's workshop lets you give it ago without the
risk
of making a fool of yourself infront of hundreds
of strangers (that comes later!!)"
Richard Holmes (Leicester Workshops)
