Ready to become a comedy script superstar?

Join us for Script a Smile: Comedy Writing Workshop - an interactive, fun-filled session where you’ll learn how to create humorous stories and characters that will have everyone giggling. Whether you’re into slapstick jokes, wordplay, or punchlines, we’ll show you how to turn your wild ideas into punchy comedy scripts.

Unpacking examples from Little Lunch, The Inbestigators and Hardball, students will explore the basics of timing, building humour, characterisation, joke and scriptwriting.

As part of this 30-minute program, writing activities will be introduced that students can engage with at the conclusion of the session
