There are two types of comedians, clean and dirty. The first type appears on the stage quite rarely, as it is very hard to do good comedy without insults and controversy. Probably the best example would be Brian Regan, who never swears or makes nasty remarks during his stand up comedy.
The dirty comedians tend use stereotypes to make people laugh at themselves and others, sexual allusions and obscene gestures, lots of swearing and controversial topics to attract more attention. Bill Hicks loved to discuss the Gulf War or the JFK assassination to criticise the government. Chris Rock often refers to LA riots or slavery and uses lots of racial language. Every stand up given by a nasty comedian consists of three acts, entry, when the comedian warms up the public by a few remarks on recent events and a couple of his classic jokes. The second part is the most tense one, as it explores important social or political problems, with lost of cynical and bitter remarks about the past and lots of uncertainty about the future. The second part is used to show the comedians both intellectual and humour talents. Third part is the final act where relief is offered. Jokes become sexual and receive the most laughs.
Laugh your ass of here!
