Loving Laughing
In Loving Laughing, we showcase the comedic talents of Year 6 children, as part of The UK Kids’ Comedy Festival. We deliver comedy workshops where students work on comedy sketches which are then brought to The Y Theatre as part of the festivals to compete for the crown of The Funniest School In Leicestershire! Loving Laughing is a fantastic way to build confidence and self-esteem through collaborating and performing comedy.
