Who is this Masterclass for?
The masterclass is designed for people with some comedy writing experience and also beginners. We also run a day workshop for writing comedy for stand-up, sketches and more. This workshop is the perfect way to start if you are a complete beginner - see workshops available on this website for more details.
Why is the Masterclass just for women?
We've found that women often feel more supported and safe in an all female environment especially when they're stepping out of their comfort zone.
Our workshops are for cis and trans women, as well as non-binary people who are comfortable in a space that centres on the experiences of women.
