Abstract
Common Culture critically manipulate the conventions of popular forms of British culture for their art. Comic Battle interrogates the stand-up comedy routine that serves as a familiar device for the reflection upon and analysis of human relationships. Delivered as a popular form of entertainment, the comics’ observations are driven by their own social experience; informed by a sense of who they are and how they relate to a world they share with their audience. Their local views on the big issues of sexuality, race, class and politics, mark their stories as funny and potentially insightful.
