Poetry School: Comedy for Poets!
Sat 23 Oct 2021 to Sat 30 Oct 2021
Put some comedy into your poetry with award-winning comedian and poet Angie Belcher.

Ever wanted to turn your funny stories into poetry or learn how to use comedic devices in your writing? Then this is the course for you!

This 2-day workshop will help you channel your inner stand-up comedian, find your funny, and teach you how to creatively use comedy in your poetry; using industry tips, you’ll learn how humour can bring your audience closer to your writing, balancing the light and shade of a moment, and give your poetry a sharper edge.

This course is for anyone who would like to try their hand at writing in comedic ways, developing different literary personas, or is interested in how humour can function in poetry. 

Angie Belcher is a facilitator, actor, writer, and stand-up comedian with over 15 years’ experience creating and presenting shows. Angie’s clients include BBC, The Prince’s Trust, Capita, and WISH, London.
