Twelve comedians will then be selected to attend “Laughter Class”, where they will be put through their paces and trained in all genres of comedy from stand-up to panto performance by a host of industry experts. Six of the comics will then be selected to take part in a live stand-up show, also to be staged at the Gaiety on a date to be confirmed. The acts will be judged on the night by the live audience and a celebrity panel, with the winner receiving a prize – including supporting Jim Davidson on one of his shows on his live tour. The entire series will be filmed exclusively for Ustreme.
