I have found the course immensely helpful, as an actor for a number of years - with the tutor very supportive and helpful. I have now managed to learn a whole new way to perform in just a couple of days

The course has improved my confidence and the open spot I performed went down really well! And it's pretty cheap too! If you've got funny bones, you can do no better.

Jay's courses - the intro through to the advanced - have infused a new vitality and structure into my comedy ethos. I truly believe that had I stumbled onto Jay sooner, I'd have much more to show for my comedy career aspirations.

Laughing Horse Comedy Testimonials

Positive 

I loved every minute of a recent two-day comedy stand-up comedy workshop for beginners with Jay Sodagar - via Zoom. I was extremely impressed with Jay's ability to deliver so much fascinating and practical content online, and share a clear passion for - and extensive experience of - the world of stand-up.

4/5 

Notable was the relaxed and uncompetitive atmosphere, in no small part down to the tutor who focused on helping each participant to find a personal style, coached them on how to edit their material and explained how not to fall out with comperes... The course culminated in impressive performances that night at a Free Festival venue with radically improved acts.
