    Comedy is creativity. This from Ricky Gervias, ‘You should bring something into the world that wasn’t in the world before. It doesn’t matter what that is. It doesn’t matter if it’s a table or a film or gardening; everyone should create. You should do something then sit back and say “I did that”’
  • Reasons to have a go at stand-up….

  • Hydrate!
    Hydrate! Take a small bottle of water with a sports cap on stage with you. Nerves can make your mouth as dry as a desert.
