Hosted by Justine Sless, kids can attend this crash course in stand-up comedy where they’ll learn simple joke writing techniques as well as performance skills.

The kids will gain confidence in public speaking and writing, while telling some jokes, and popping out side splitting one liners to dazzle friends with a funny story.

The workshop at 2pm concludes with the Crash Course Graduates Show at 3pm for the kids to take to the stage themselves at the Bendigo Library performance space - families and friends welcome to attend.

Justine Sless is a comedian author and MC, who teaches stand-up comedy in schools, libraries and workplaces. Find out more at www.justinesless.com
