 BARKING PRODUCTIONS is a Creative Development & Corporate Entertainment Company run by professional actors and specialising in Drama based training. In addition, our Comedy Improvisation show INSTANT WIT is widely performed at Corporate Events - along with other Corporate Entertainment vehicles such as our comic speech on the "History of Leadership".
We have developed our own creative approach to communication skills training and
offer a broad range of services to the Corporate sector, often using comedy and
our sense of humour approach to help put across serious business messages -
hence our strap-line: “Serious but Fun”.
The INSTANT WIT show was our first foray into the Corporate sector as Corporate Entertainment.
We regularly perform the show as either "stand-alone" entertainment - shaped to reflect the overall nature and themes of a client's event - or as an additional offer to compliment the various training programmes that we are delivering.
INSTANT WIT also operate an Education Programme under my direction. I am an experienced
Drama Workshop Leader, offering performance-related special skills workshops on
subjects such as Comedy Improvisation, Stage Fighting & Acting Technique to Schools, Youth Theatres, Theatre Companies and Adult Education Groups. Click on "Education Programme" at the INSTANT WIT website for more information at www.instantwit.co.uk
