The Beating Heart of Comedy

Comedy has several subgenres distinguished by their style of delivery, the context used and the source of humour. In theatre, the most common subgenres of comedy shows are burlesque, satire, parody, farce and comedy of manners. Whichever you choose, they’re all a great way to relax and forget about the stresses of the day.
