"Chris is a fantastic comedy coach. His sessions are so well structured and informed. He gets the points across very clearly and it is impossible not to pick up countless tips to improve your comedy writing. Chris is a master in the art of crafting comedy and I would highly recommend his courses."
Anthony Quinn
"Chris is a great teacher. I've done two Zoom courses with him and they've both been excellent. The best part is the weekly homework, which took me beyond "maybe one day" to actually writing comedy."
Lottie Field
"I cannot recommend Chris highly enough as a comedy coach. He has obviously built up a tremendous wealth of knowledge and depth of understanding about every aspect of comedy over the course of his career."
Comedy Script Feedback & Coaching (On Zoom)
Personal, one-to-one coaching
In sessions on Zoom ranging from 30 mins to an hour I can work with you on a range of comedy scripts from sketches to sitcoms to comedy dramas. Typically you will submit work in advance and we will discuss, but you can also book a session to talk over ideas or ways forward. Personal, inspring and practical.
Comedy Writing Classes
I offer courses in comedy scriptwriting on Zoom (see clip above).
Learn all the tools and techniques that you need to write wonderful scripts. This is an exploratory course where you get to try out characters, scenes and situations, while working with comedy techniques. By the end of the course you'll be ready to write your script - plus you will now be equipped with a tool kit of comedy techniques.
