Improvisation workshop Wednesday 6 June

On Wednesday 6th June young people between the age of 13 and 19 will have the opportunity to take part in a very special comedy improvisation workshop at Woodhorn. A group of professional comediens called the Suggestibles will be leading the activities. The event at Woodhorn has been funded by NE Generation so is free to participants and no previous experience of comedy of improvisation is required.

There are still a few places left, so anyone interested in taking part should contact Juliet Hardy as soon as possible on 01670 528039,  07736 048024 or email jhardy@woodhorn.org.uk
