Want to get more laughs in your set? Then come to Trigger Happy!
Michael Hughes presents this fab workshop empowering your comedy talents massively!
In Trigger Happy we will learn the 8 laugher triggers – proven approaches to trigger laughter. These approaches have been used by comics consciously, unconsciously and successfully for years. We will learn what these laughter triggers are and how to use them to create more and better material.
Trigger Happy can give your writing direction and help you look at topics from a different angle. Each laughter trigger is explained, demonstrated and broken down step-by-step so you can start using them immediately.
Trigger Happy is suitable for novices and more experienced comics keen to improve their writing. Join us and take your comedy to the next level!
