Jill Edwards Comedy Workshops at Komedia Brighton

Jill Edwards Comedy Workshops have been established since 1994. Jill moved to Brighton and created the original and the best Brighton stand-up comedy course, and her Chortle Award winning comedy club Comic Boom, here at Komedia Brighton in 2005.

Komedia hosts Jills range of welcoming, engaging and above all fun stand-up comedy courses for all – from absolute beginners with no experience to newer comedians looking to develop their skills.

Jill Edwards comedy courses have a proven and continuous track record of success over thirty years. She has trained some of the UK’s top comedy writers, performers and award winning television comedians, including Jimmy Carr, Shaparak Khorsandi, Shazia Mirza, rising star Jack Skipper, Brighton’s own Seann Walsh, Angela Barnes and Romesh Ranganathan.

Jill’s stand-up comedy classes are where they all first started out…

“I wouldn’t be a professional comic if it wasn’t for Jill Edwards.” Romesh Ranganathan

“This comedy course can change your life, and I sincerely mean that.” Angela Barnes

COURSES TAKE PLACE IN EITHER THE KOMEDIA STUDIO OR BASEMENT

AGES 18+

ALL TICKETS AND ENQUIRIES ARE DEALT WITH DIRECTLY THROUGH JILL EDWARDS

You are all brilliant!!!!!

The accessibility at Comic Boom Comedy Club was absolutely brilliant. I had emailed beforehand and your communication about accessibility was great. The staff at the event were also great. I really appreciate how easy it was in a wheelchair as not all venues are so accommodating.
