Random Nuggets

  • Speak out!
    Speak out! You’ll never get a real sense of how your set sounds unless you rehearse out loud, it also helps you time your set
  • Visual elements
    Props are a great way of introducing a visual element to your set, but make sure you rehearse them, otherwise they’ll trip you up.
  • How will you get off stage?
    How will you get off stage? What’s your last line? If you don’t know this you’ll ‘fizzle’ rather than ‘bang!’
