Comedy live – creativity in stand up

Moore, L

Abstract

Stand-up is a special form of comedy as it involves the audience perhaps more than any other genre. In this session we will explore the nature of stand-up versus other forms of comedy. Questions will also focus on the role of writing in stand-up, how the audience can be accounted for in the writing process, and how the written piece might be different from the performed piece.
