Early bird tickets: www.tickettailor.com/events/nextl...

We can't wait to have @theawkwardsilence.bsky.social back!

On Wednesday 19th February, NLS returns with the best sketch, character comedy, and weirdo clowns that we can lure to Hoopla Impro with Ali Brice, Camilla Borges and Rob Duncan! wegottickets.com/event/647211

It's so hard to stay positive as a writer/artist/creator when all you receive is negativity & disinterest & never a crumb of encouragement. So I want to tell you, here & now, that you are the fucking BEST. Keep going. Bloody hell, we need some fun art around here right now. PLEASE make it.

One of our show producers @spanielapplause.bsky.social wrote this about our 5th Birthday show: medium.com/@pacreasy/fi...

We wouldn't be doing our sold out 5th Anniversary show tonight without Gemma's courses ☺️

And, of course, if YOU would like to sign up to do the sketch writing course they took, you can! Here: www.hooplaimpro.com/sketch-comed...

Next Level Sketch is a sketch comedy night in London Bridge set up by alumni from my writing courses. Tonight they celebrate their 5th year of putting on shows with a SOLD OUT performance.

They are a brilliant bunch & I am so proud of them all!

Had to get rid of a Sir Kier brainworm

You can tell I’m completely out of practice organising live events, because I forgot to include *any of the actual details* 🤦🏾‍♂️ (Anyway, it’s at 7pm on Tuesday, 21st January at the Etcetera Theatre in Camden 🥳)

New thing for London friends: I’m starting a scratch night for sketch comedy films called Sketchburn! 🧵

Stop Forcing A.I. into Fucking EVERYTHING!

Next Monday! Looks tremendous! NLS connections: Jen Zheng and Hari Kanth were a brilliant past guest act and sketch writer respectively! Leslie and a couple of our producers have an ongoing joint fascination with Garfield! &c!

People seemed to particularly enjoy this bit of "It's a Sensible Life" starring Sir Kier Starmer last night

Share if you think Britain was better in the olden days!

This bit of wisdom just popped back into my mind so I thought I'd share...

I was at a masterclass with Julie Walters & she was asked 'what makes a good sketch?'
She said:
• Short
• with characters based in truth
• and with your best joke at the end.

Working a full-time job to support your creative side hustle is really difficult, but Homer managed to write the lliad whilst clocking in at the nuclear power plant every day. Inspirational

Well it turns out @joznorris.bsky.social Grubby Little Mitts and @lornarosetreen.bsky.social are still brilliant. Who knew? (Us) What a great show last night. Our FIFTH ANNIVERSARY SHOW is on January 30th at Hoopla Impro! Tickets here: wegottickets.com/event/638712
