Before I share the list of my fave comics (standup comedian), I would have to explain the definition of Stand Up Comedy first.
Stand-up comedy is a comic style in which a comedian performs in front of a live audience, usually speaking directly to them. The performer is commonly known as a comic,stand-up comic, stand-up comedian, or simply a stand-up. In stand-up comedy, the comedian usually recites a fast-paced grouping of humorous stories, short jokes called "bits", and one-liners typically called a monologue, routine, or act. Some stand-up comedians use props, music, or magic tricks to enhance their acts. Stand-up comedy is often performed in comedy clubs, bars, nightclubs, neo-burlesque colleges, and theaters. Outside of live performance, stand-up is often distributed commercially via television, DVD, and the internet.
