LOGAN MURRAY'S COMEDY WORKSHOPS
ASK MOST WORKING COMEDIANS IN THE UK HOW TO BEGIN A CAREER IN COMEDY AND THEY WILL PROBABLY TELL YOU TO GET IN TOUCH WITH LOGAN MURRAY.
WHY? For many reasons:
-
Logan Murray is a working stand up, writer, award nominated director and comic actor who has been making a living as a comedian since 1984. He has taught people from as far West as Colorado and as far East as the Philippines. He has a master’s degree in Stand Up Comedy and is the author of the highly acclaimed, best selling Teach Yourself book ‘Be a Great Stand Up’.
-
His is the longest running comedy course in London: Since 2001, Logan has taught over 2500 people how to be funny, making him the most experienced teacher in Britain.
-
All courses are led by Logan Murray – we do not use inexperienced jobbing comedians, with little or no teaching experience, like some companies do.
-
This is the most successful comedy course in Europe. People who have been taught by Logan Murray have gone on to win every major comedy award, including The Perrier, Channel 4’s ‘So You Think You’re Funny’, ‘Chortle Awards’, ‘Funny Women’ ‘Leicester Mercury Comedy Award' and 'Laughing Horse New Act of the Year’. Many graduates from the workshops not only work now as professional comedians all around the World, but they also have become household names, panel show regulars, sitcom actors, TV and radio writers and even bone fide Film Stars!
-
Logan Murray takes a special pride in helping you unlock your own unique comic voice. Some courses actively encourage a generic style of comedy - we help you to be the comedian you want to be. Logan is proud to say that there is nothing remotely generic about his graduates:
Rhod Gilbert - TV presenter and comedian; Greg Davies - Award Winning Comedian, panellist, and sit-com Giant (The Inbetweeners); Anna Crilly - Star of Lead Balloon; Andi Osho – regular on Channel 4’s ‘Stand Up for the Week’; Kavan Novak – Channel 4’s Phone Jacker, Face Jacker and star of the film ‘Four Lions’; Kirsten O'Brien - Children’s' TV presenter and panellist; Marcel Lecont – Internationally renowned Character Act; Danielle Ward – Award winning playwright and comedienne; Dominic Holland – Award winning comedian, script writer and author; Jessica Knappett - Female lead in The Inbetweeners movie; Rob Broderick – Rapper extraordinaire from ‘Abandoman’; Holly Walsh – Comedian, writer, panellist and co- presenter of Channel 4’s TNT.
Or look at the individual, and award-winning, nature of the work of Steve Hall, Ed Aczel, James Branch, Debra-Jane Appleby, Tom Wrigglesworth, Miriam Elia, Sy Thomas, James Redmond, Mark Restuccia, Ariadne the Wag, Dick and Dom, Rik Edwards, Carly Smallman, Lousia Omelian, Luke Benson, Maff Brown and Marek Larwood - the list goes on and on!
Their only common denominator is that audiences find them very funny.
But perhaps the best reason to do one of Logan’s courses is that it will be one of the most satisfying things you will do in your life.
You will laugh more, you will play more and you will learn more about your creative processes than you ever thought possible.
As well as his regular London-based courses, Logan Murray will also be teaching at:
