Very interesting this. Henry Normal (of Baby Cow Productions) is to give a comedy writing workshop/lecture/seminar at the Museum of Comedy on 7th May, followed by comic Danielle Ward doing the same, but about podcasts. Twelve quid or eighteen for both and it promises a chance to network in the bar after. Could be worth a punt!
