About Us

 

 

 

 

Silver Comedy is Britain’s first specialist comedy training company seeking to enrich the lives of older people through actively engaging them in comedy workshops and performances.

 

Silver Comedy provides tailor made comedy sessions in group settings for relevant organisations that support the needs of older people, including those living in supported housing and care homes and older people attending day centres. We are happy to work with the frail elderly.

 

We also undertake intergenerational work and can assist organisations who would like to develop entertaining ways to consult and involve their customers.

 

Silver Comedy workshops range from stand up comedy and sketch comedy, to impro and clowning. Plus there is the soon to be legendary Silver Comedy Stand Up Competition.

 

“It’s been very refreshing working with an innovative group of people committed to promoting the wellbeing of older people.  Great at partnership and great at making work fun!”

“Wow ... Wow ... what an amazing experience.  Both Chris and George are very person-focused and professional:  willing to listen and take on suggestions and ideas from others; very creative and imaginative - making something out of nothing. Great working with you both”.
