🎤 MICROHONE 🎤

The Search for Cabaret’s Next Great Host

MicroHone is a brand-new intensive day course, created by Phoxy Qurvy, to help identify, encourage and develop the next generation of cabaret, burlesque and variety hosts.

Hosting is more than holding a microphone. It’s confidence, timing, adaptability and the ability to make every audience member feel part of the experience.

Despite the huge number of performance courses around, opportunities dedicated to developing hosts are rare, yet great hosts are vital to the smooth running of any good show.

Enter MicroHone… Not a competition. Not a workshop. An opportunity. Applications are now open.

🎭 Stage presence & confidence
🎤 Microphone technique
✨ Creating your hosting persona
🎪 Intros, transitions & crowd engagement
💥 Improv & crisis handling
🌟 Professional hosting skills for live events
🎭 And more…

But this isn’t just a course…

⭐ Three participants will be selected to guest host The Qurve Ball 12 on Saturday 28th November 2026, showcasing their talents and gaining experience in front of a live audience.

👑 One participant will receive a future paid hosting booking.

Every participant will receive:

✔️ A pre-course preparation pack
✔️ Practical hosting exercises
✔️ Professional feedback
✔️ Individual 1-to-1 feedback

📅 Saturday 24th October 2026
🕚 11am – 6pm
