I love stand-up comedy!  That's when a comedian performs in front of a live audience.
i dont know much about that. where does this usually take place?
It can be performed in comedy clubs, bars, night clubs, colleges, and other places!  I saw stand up in a college once.
ohh okay. when did stand up comedy first get its start?
Stand up has history way back to ancient Greece! These days, stand-up comedy can be distributed to many by DVD or the internet.
nice! wat other fact can you tell me about standup comedy?
Stand-up comedy is filled with pressure for the comedian.  Audiences expect to be laughing the entire set.
yeah i bet. i could never go up there lol! anything else you can inform me of?
Dave Chappelle is a famous stand-up comedian, and he turned that into a television series, "Chappelle's Show".  So stand up can lead to many opportunities
i see. thank you for all of the info. i should check out a standup comedy myself one day
