綜藝節目秀的喜劇演員
您認為什麼是幽默？是單獨表演的喜劇演員？還是電視廣告？一般說來，典型的綜藝節目表演有8到14幕，或稱之為節目 (turns) ，其間還會包括一丁點各式表演。綜藝節目表演(又稱為「雜耍」variety)包括了魔術、音樂演奏、舞蹈表演、歌舞秀、雜技表演、戲法、喜劇劇目、動物特技、名人客串演出及無名小卒的現場表演等各式各樣的表演項目。由演出者獨自擔綱演出的喜劇表演尤其受到大眾歡迎，像這張海報內的肯岱兒 (Ezra
Kendall) 就是一例，少數表演者更因他們的表演而闖出名號。
What do you think of as humorous? A stand-up comedian? A TV commercial? A typical vaudeville show had eight to 14 acts, or "turns," and included a little bit of everything. Magic segments, musical numbers, dance numbers, combination song-and-dance acts, acrobatics, juggling, comic routines, animal acts, celebrity cameos, and appearances by unsavory characters all had their place in a vaudeville (also called "variety") show. Comic monologues by performers, such as Ezra Kendall in the poster you see here, were especially popular. A few performers became well known for their acts.
