“Humor is invariably translatable. It is all about recognition and surprise, and stand-up comedy is the last bastion of free speech,” .
American comic Dave Fulton told
Reuters after mocking fellow Americans as much as the rest of the world in his high-octane gig.It reminds me of the time in Australia, when i went to see the ‘Melbourne International Comedy Festival‘. It is one of my best experiences in the Oz Land. They had really good stand-up comedians along with humourous small skits and plays.
Wish we had something on these lines in India. However i do enjoy the
‘Great Indian Comdey Show’ on Star One, which i think is no less compared with the american show ‘Its a Mad Mad World’.
