Doc:Comedy examines the mechanics of comedians - how they work & what drives them to stand in front of crowds, opening up their hearts & letting you glimpse their unique take on the world. Where do they get their crazy ideas from? What is the process involved in transforming a brief thought into a full show that will have you falling off your seat in tears of laughter? In a world seemingly more concerned with the size of bank accounts than the size of a smile, is there a time & and place for frittering away an hour filled with laughter? Doc:Comedy explores how the environment influences a comedian's work & how a comedian influences the world in which they live.
