What are Spymonkey doing in Cork?

They’re bringing a workshop where you will discover what make you funny, hone your skills and practice what makes an audience belly laugh. The workshop takes place March 12-13th at The Crypt at St.Lukes in Cork City. If you love to make people laugh and have a flair for performing, then you will love this workshop.

What will I do in the workshop with Spymonkey?

You will channel your inner clown and be absolutely ridiculous! Aside from that you will be supported to develop and hone your comedic skills in a safe and fun environment. You’ll be adventurous and take risks and learn how to shine as an individual and improve on every spontaneous opportunity!

This positive group dynamic will allow you focus on following your impulse, being adventurous and taking risks. You will learn how to shine as an individual and improve on every spontaneous opportunity. In this highly enjoyable workshop you will play games, do exercises developing trust and complicity with the group. In this atmosphere of discovery and revelation, you will be developing and showing new material.

Be prepared to find the pleasure in your own ridiculousness, stay optimistic, discover your comedy gold, and get ready to laugh until your face hurts. Spaces are limited for this weekend workshop with Spymonkey so make sure to register asap to avoid disappointment!
