Comedy Kids operates a number of internationally-based clubs for young people
Comedy Kids comedians have had as much experience working with children as with adults, According to John Winterton, he is Đế first ever young people's stand-up comedian,
John looks like most People’s idea of a typical entertainer for young people
Comedy Kids will hold special parties at their clubs for young people if requested,
A lot of Comedy Kids comedians have the tight qualities for Performing at young people’s
Parties,
Guests at Comedy Kids parties are invited to perform if they wish
Comedy Kids have discovered lots of good young comedians who have not been trained,
In a year’s time there'll be more classes available for young people wanting to be comedians, Comedy Kids prefer it if the young People who join them are already quite confident.

Comedy Kids
Do you enjoy watching comedy? Do all your friends at school think you tell great jokes? Then why not come and see what's happening
just for young people aged 10-15 They’re real clubs with real
comedians, who are just as familiar with working in adult comedy
= clubs as they are working with children But don’t take our word for _ it—come and see for yourself!
The Comedy Kids company was set up by John Winterton, who says that no-one had thought of
being a stand-up comedian for young people until he came along In fact, his act quickly became so
popular that he soon found lots of other comedians who wanted to join his company and perform for
families and young people And if you think, as many others do, that a young people’s comedian
leaps on stage in a brightly-coloured costume andl big red nose — think again John usually appears dressed in a cool black jacket and trousers — more like a Hollywood movie star than a circus clown!
If you're having a party at home Comedy Kids can come and perform for you there at your party —
just ask! Of course, it’s not the same as performing on stage, so we're always looking for comedians
in the clubs who are good at working with small numbers of young people ~ and we've discovered
there aren’t many of them about! But the ones we have found are brilliant Your very own
comedian will also help you to tell your guests some jokes and silly stories — and they can join in
too, if they want! It'll be fun — and very different from any party you've ever had before!
Here at Comedy Kids, it’s not just about the adults telling the jokes We also have very short ‘open
spots’ where young people get the chance to perform But we've yet to find someone who can do
that without preparation, so we've set up the world’s first ‘Comedy Classes’ to teach young people
how to tell jokes on stage At the moment our classes are only monthly, but we're planning to start a number of others over the coming year So if you want to be a comedian but don’t want to wait until you grow up, this is where you can do it And if you're creative but feel you're lacking in the
confidence to speak up, we can certainly help Well listen to what you want to do, and try to make
it happen
So what are you waiting for? Come and join Comedy Kids!

director and persuaded him to meet me I flew back and got the part

to be away for three weeks Once I was back at university, I got up at 6.00 am to write
the essays I’d missed I didn’t tell my university friends, but they found out and
thought it was great
I was an amazing experience — I’m so lucky After university, I definitely want to
make acting my career I’m not from an acting family, though my grandmother was
an opera singer I’ve tried for other TV parts but haven’t received any offers yet
I don’t know how I managed it all, because I had a full social life too When filming finished, I hardly knew what to do I’ve since appeared in two college plays
