Join stand-up comedy teacher and performer David LaBarca as he de-constructs the work of stand-up comedy legends to explore the richer aspects of their work and their impact on our culture.
Understand how George Carlin used silliness to make insightful social commentary; Joan Rivers maintained stage presence even when not on stage; Jonathan Winters brilliantly influenced Robin Williams; Woody Allen laid the ground work for his iconic film career; Richard Pryor transformed his pain into timeless comedy. And, most recently, Jerry Seinfeld transformed observations about the ordinary into comedy that was extraordinary.
If you’ve laughed at their jokes, understand why; and if you’ve never laughed at their jokes, this deep dive into their genius, just may change that.
