  • Marc please learn something

    Marc ruins this. His lack of knowledge and insistence that he is right all the time is exhausting. Steve and Stuart - save yourselves

Q: What got you into stand up?

Janine Harouni Being in Batman, Acting Alongside James McAvoy & Manifesting Her Husband
Q: Do you feel more comfortable as a standup than as an actor?
Harouni says she feels more comfortable making jokes, describing comedy as a possible response to anxiety about whether people like her. She finds acting less comfortable, particularly improvising dramatic scenes.

Q: How do you find doing panel shows in the UK? Is it hard because there are references like that that you won't always be up on?
Harouni says she knows many more British references after living in the UK for years, but can feel at a disadvantage when audiences react more warmly to better-known performers than to her.
Laura Lexx on Viral Jurgen Klopp Tweets, Theories of Laughter & History of UK & US Comedy
Q: What have you learned about writing and performing for stand-up over the years?
Laura discusses treating writing methodically, ad-libbing to find a personal voice, and using feedback from live shows to iterate material, with a focus on clear persona and mindful self-promotion.
