Have you ever watched a comedian and thought "I could do that"? Here's your chance to find out if you could.
Gavin's workshops cover all facets of stand-up from how to begin thinking about doing comedy to writing and performing professional level comedy routines.
Originally devised as a stand-up comedy course for Adult Education in Hobart the workshops are designed to help new comedians start performing more professionally, more quickly and to help them avoid the more common pitfalls that come in the first few years of doing stand-up.
The original course has also been adapted into a 90 minute school workshop for high school students and a 6 hour intensive workshop for new and aspiring comedians. The courses and workshops have been held around Tasmania and in Melbourne, Canberra and Perth.
Gavin also offers one-on-one tutoring and mentorship which is used by both beginners and working comedians.
The workshops are also great for motivation and team building as well as improving your communication, public speaking and presentation skills.
A veteran of over ten years in the industry and with nine Melbourne International Comedy Festivals under his belt Gavin has extensive stand-up experience and has performed around the country alongside Australia's top comedians. He has appeared on the Comedy Channel, ABC-TV and The 7PM Project and is a regular guest on ABC Radio and 7HOFM in Hobart.
There are no workshops currently scheduled, but if you are in Hobart, Gavin is running his weekly Joke Shop sessions on Tuesday nights. Email gavin@gavinbaskerville.com for more details.
Testimonials
"I found the course highly professional. It gave me the confidence and the tools to craft my comedy and actually get up on stage to perform it! Gav managed to lend his years of experience in the industry to give invaluable tips and tricks. Some of which have flowed on into my social and work life. I recommend the course to anyone with an inclination to comedy and a will to get up on stage." - Michael Davies
"Gav's warm and generous teaching style set everyone at ease. Enjoyable, challenging, memorable and useful. And the workshop was great too." - S Cooper
"Gavin carefully and thoroughly covers the entire process of performing standup; explaining, simply, the theory behind being funny, the performance process, performance etiquette and much more. Gavin's warm and generous nature allow him to foster a unique and individual performance from each student" - Adam James
"I went into the course scared of making a fool of myself, enjoyed every session immensely and graduated unafraid of playing the fool. Thank you, Gavin." - Martine Delaney
"The most valuable Adult Ed course I've ever done. Although I'd performed stand-up many times before, Gavin's wealth of experience in the industry was invaluable." - Ted Wilson
"For someone who is indeed terrified about branching their act into this area it was invaluable. Thanks again, I really absorbed a lot from it". - Brent
"It was a great opportunity for me to try something that had always held an attraction for me and I have you to thank - so THANKS" - Belinda D
