Entries are invited for 2015's Amused Moose Laugh Off from 1pm today. Previous winners Sarah Millican, Jack Whitehall and, more recently, Rob Beckett.

In an Amused Moose first, entrants will be viewed and scored online by an industry panel from around the world. Entries, in the form of a 90-second performance clip filmed in a comedy venue, must be submitted online by the end of March 2015.

This process ensures that the Laugh Off entrants will all be seen by a substantial number of comedy industry professionals including agents, managers, promoters, bookers, producers, critics and PRs in Australia, Canada and the USA as well as in the UK – making this competition an even more effective way for new comedy talent to get spotted.

Live quarter and semi-finals will be held in London throughout May and June with the final, featuring a celebrity host, taking place on 9th August as part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Audience votes, as well as those of the industry panel, will be taken into account during all live rounds of the competition.

All finalists will receive a portfolio of professional photographs. The winner will also receive a shiny moose trophy, interim management and PR (if required) and have the opportunity to perform as part of Amused Moose Comedy Showcases at London's Soho Theatre this Autumn.
