How Can It Be Worse?

Q&HA! The Question Tools of Comedy

18-11-2022 • 9 mins

In this opening episode comedy coach and director Chris Head explores how you can work make your stand-up, sitcom, comedy drama and sketches funnier by working with the question "How can it be worse?". And find out how he hit upon the mellow late night radio DJ style voice that he delivers the pod in (spoiler: it's thanks to his lazy partner and daughter still being in bed while he recorded this first thing in the morning so he had to keep his voice down and get close to the mic).

Produced in association with The Comedy Crowd.

Chris' London stand-up course starts in January 2023

Chris runs online courses in comedy sketch writing

...and sitcom/comedy drama writing

Chris's stand-up book: "A Director's Guide to the Art of Stand-up"
