Hosting Like a Pro
A good compere can make or break an event. How do you get an audience energised without stealing the limelight? How do you respond to an audience’s reactions, whether enthusiastic or disgruntled? And what do you do when your perfectly planned event takes an unexpected turn?
Scotland’s premiere spoken word organisation, I Am Loud, is known for their high octane events, which are always impeccably hosted. Join Loud Poets Katie Ailes and Kevin Mclean for a workshop on the tricks of the trade when it comes to hosting a successful event.
