I recently graduated from the Brighton Comedy Course and would thoroughly recommend it to anyone with even the mildest ambition of performing comedy live. Lou is an exceptional tutor and facilitator, bringing energy, experience, and expertise to every session. Her encouragement and feedback were hugely insightful and did wonders for building confidence in myself and my material.

I really enjoyed Brighton Comedy Course and am so glad I signed up. Met a brilliant bunch of people and had a great time playing outside our comfort zones. Lou is a real expert in guiding and building everyone's confidence. We all achieved much more than we ever thought we would when it came to the graduation gig.

This course was everything I needed to get the knowledge and confidence to do stand up. Louise is a great teacher she gets you performing straight away.
