The Journey of a Stand-Up Comedian
This chapter explores the evolution from amateur to professional comedian, emphasizing the need to sustain oneself solely through comedy earnings while adapting to the changing landscape shaped by online platforms. It discusses the comedian's experiences of honing their craft through extensive performances at open mic nights, showcases, and the challenges of touring, which initially carried a romanticized allure but eventually led to feelings of exhaustion and loneliness. The impact of the pandemic on comedians' lives is also examined, from being grounded at home with family to the relief of returning to the road for stand-up shows.
