Comedy MC Workshop for Beginner Hosts with Ollie Horn
- The role of an MC
- Technical and production hacks
- The tricky first 30 seconds
- Using your material
- Disaster mitigation
- Hecklers
- Crowd work
Ollie hosted his MC masterclass at the Clubhouse two years ago, and it remains one of the most popular workshops. It’s designed for people who already have some experience as a stand-up, and want to level up their hosting skills. It’s especially useful for anybody running or thinking of running their own night.
Ollie Horn has been a stand-up comic for over ten years, and the majority of his circuit work is as an MC for clubs like Top Secret Comedy Club, Komedia, Just The Tonic, and more. He also works as a corporate MC and event host, working for brands like Snapchat, National Geographic, and Techstars. He has taught this workshop for many years to new comics all the way to professional headline acts, who needed a bit of help to transform the skills they have as a comic to the skills of an MC.
“Amazing experience. Ollie’s workshop was really interesting and useful in building my confidence on stage as a presenter. Fun and clear, dynamic and with practical examples. Highly recommended!” — Wendy
“Ollie’s advice about bucket speeches for free shows was a game changer. Our local shows doubled the amount we were making by following his tips. You’ll make your money back taking this workshop from this advice alone” — Anna
“The participants learned so much and the reactions were so positive. Ollie draws on his own experiences to provide very useful advice and gives personalised feedback during the practical aspect of the workshop, which is extremely helpful!” — Rachel
