Our Indigenous performers will also embed important lessons about culture and community making the learning far deeper than just knowing how to write a sketch.

- Writing for comedy – how to write a joke or skit
- Conveying an idea and delivering humour to the audience
- Mastering public speaking – tools for confidence

Boozy Brushstrokes Workshop with Alejandro Lauren
Boozy Brushstrokes is the fun team building class you’ve been looking for. “Paint and sip” classes are all the craze at the moment, but Boozy Brush Strokes adds an authentic element of Aboriginal education to this activity. Run by a sassy Birpai instructor (Wayde from Alejandro Lauren), attendees are promised fun, education and big laughs. Rather than canvases, the art is done on a tote bag that is provided. It’s eco-friendly and ego-flaunting since you can parade it around knowing your art is being seen by society at large. All you need to do is provide the space, drinks and nibbles for your guests.
Empowerment through Creativity
How to use comedy as a coping mechanism and a diplomacy tool, and how to harness your creativity to build confidence.
This workshop aims to address various issues that ignite self-doubt in its participants, with a focus on resilience, reflection and moving forward by utilising effective forms of expression through comedy. Comedy is a valuable medium to help break down any barriers participants
have. In this way, humour can be used to relate, express and cope with complex situations. If pain is the basis of the shared human experience, then comedy, which is, seemingly, the antithesis, is best borne from those experiences and as the foundations for effective
diplomacy and communication
Learning Objectives
- Why using humour can help “soften the blow”
- How to write a joke and frame difficulties through the lens of humour
- How to reframe ‘bouncing back’ or resilience as creativity and how to extend personal
growth as an opportunity to express yourself - Mastering public speaking and why this can aid in building assertive practices
Corporate Events
First Nations Talent Agency pride ourselves on finding and developing the very best Indigenous and Islander keynote speakers, MC’s comedians and musicians for any special event.
