It all happens at a
young age when you start cracking jokes with
friends, girlfriends, in the class/college and so
on. You develop a niche for comedy, you got a
natural knack to make people laugh, you think your
presence makes surrounding people predict that now
the atmosphere will be joyous. OK you have got the
interest and daring to go, so what’s next to get
on to proper Stand Up Comedy
*Stage is your
Workspace*
Almost all Stand Up Comedies are performed on
stage or in front of live audience or dummy
audience if performing for TV shows. Improvisation
acting or public speaking training in front of
people is very helpful. If you are comfortable on
stage, in front of an audience half of the battle
is won. Most stand up comedies, (except legends of
comedies as Umer Sharif, Johny Lever, Raju
Srivastav), you got to perform maximum for 15-20
minutes for one go. So your first Item should be
the best of your Creations. You can’t get a live
stage to practice, so start out by memorizing your
best first item of the material, then rehearse in
front of the mirror, working out your timing.
Remember, timing is the most important aspect in
Comedy. Timing is how you end a sentence and begin
the next sentence proving exact duration of pause,
if necessary(experience counts a lot) depending
upon the response you are getting from the
audience. When you think you are through in front
of mirror session, practice in front of friends,
colleagues, small get togethers, or anyone who’s
willing to provide you an opportunity to get on
the stage. You can start with any stage programmes
to begin with. Read full article on https://voiceartistes.com/article5.html
