“A good tragedian takes a serious situation too lightly. A good

comedian takes a light situation too seriously.” —Bodoism

 

What makes us laugh? You don’t know. I don’t know. Nobody knows… But

when we do laugh, we know. Through the delivery of a perfectly worded

line, a prat fall, a funny voice, a ridiculous walk, the absurd, the preposterous, or even the deadpan slow burn straight to the audience: in

theatre, comedy waits around every unexpected corner. Explaining comedy is hard. Try describing your favorite SNL sketch to a friend. Performing it is even harder. It takes discipline, dedication, timing, and the courage to be gloriously dumb. SERIOUS Comedy is your backstage pass to unlocking the technique.
