These events are part of The Glitter Project – A Safe Place, a series of Mentoring Meetups and Open Mic events funded by the National Lottery through Arts Council England, and take place in partnership with Komedia, home of Funny Women’s longest running pro-gig in the UK, under the direction of regional producer Kate McGann.

First at 7pm join us for some informal networking, fun and games, plus first-hand advice from visiting experts who’ve all ‘been there, done that’ in some capacity. We all know how challenging it can be to embark on a new interest and potential career so these events are designed to take out the overwhelm and connect you with other likeminded female and non-binary comedy performers, writers and creators.

Then at 8.30pm attend our showcase event offering female and non-binary performers vital stage time, whether it’s their first time on stage or they are a more established act looking for ‘A Safe Place’ to try out new material.
