About

Playface was born out of Viki and Charlie’s love of comedy, play and leading a happier life. We run comedy classes, shows, play workshops and socials in London (and sometimes more widely). Everything we do has PLAY at the heart. 

Whether you’re here to watch or perform comedy, to be a bit more playful or to meet new people, come and play! 

Co-created by Charlie and Viki Jackson. The Jacksons bring their kind, creative and positive energy to the world. They’re keen to create happy and inclusive spaces where you can learn and perform comedy, play together and hang out as a big bunch of nice humans. Both Charlie and Viki are performers and facilitators as well as deeply interested in the theory of comedy and play - although you may need to stop them if they get a bit too deep with the theory side of things! 

Playface also works with a variety of guest teachers and producers to host some of our more specialised workshops and events.
