„Funny to the Bone“
Being funny or comic or amusing or…is a serious business.
If we feel we are being funny, if we think we are being funny, then forget it, we’re NOT.
And in order to do something „badly“ to make people laugh, we have to be able to do it well. So, how to get to comedy?
We’ll have a look at things we do, how we do them and why. Then we’ll change the point of view and see what happens. Sounds simple. Have a look at George Carl, Gene Sheldon, Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton, Laurel and Hardy, and your other  favourite comic actors. How do they do it so simply?
Have a look at clowns and realise that the great clowns never laugh: they concentrate on being extremely human, no more, no less.
