Overheard Backstage peers behind the curtain (or brick wall) into the offstage area where comics gossip, bicker, and make each other laugh. Overheard @ Giggles Comedy Club:
“Are you really going to open with your singing again? Seriously, you’re still doing that?”
“I have to.”
“Why don’t you try starting with a punchline. You know, open with a joke.”
“I can’t! My material sucks! If I don’t open by singing Beyoncé, THEY WON’T LIKE ME!!”
The latter was yelled by the very funny Mike Corning, who went on to have a fantastic set. They love you, Mike!
