British Comedy Guide

A question for any standups on here...

I've just got a question for anyone on here who does, or has done, standup comedy. My question is, what style/persona do you use on stage, and what type of comedy do you do i.e observational, oneliners, deadpan .etc

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

I would like to think I am a surreal storyteller with long build ups and then a series of punchlines. I can't do one liners. I try to be animated and larger than life on stage as am mono-tone and quiet for real.

but as I said that's what I would like to think...

Is that you in your avatar, DM?

No mate that's BA with my moves ;)

Ah, well. He looks like a charismatic young chap. You taught him well.

Here's a really old video. Nowadays I tend to do one-liners.

Beware, a lot of Irish references

Closed - use this thread as it's kinda a catch-all and quite busy with the stand-ups here.
