I've found it hard to find places to start up in comedy. Ended up doing the King Gong show at The Comedy Store in London (last Monday of every month). It's a bear pit but you learn fast! I'm trying to put on an evening for newcomers to try their hand/material. Hoping to stage it on the 12th November in Beaconsfield, Bucks. Anyone interested in having a go, contact me on laff@mail.com
