THE TAO OF COMEDY: EMBRACE THE PAUSE (Book)
“Too much has been said about stand-up comedy,” claims comedian and comedy coach Bobbie Oliver. “I think it’s time someone said Nothing – which is why I have written The Tao of Comedy: Embrace the Pause.”
Oliver tosses a grenade into the conventional wisdom regarding stand-up comedy books and classes, and gives the status quo a thorough shaking in her new book. “My goal is to de-hack comedy, one comedian at a time,” she says.
Drawing on Taoist and Zen Buddhist philosophies, The Tao of Comedy is about comedy as art, not as a means to the perennial end: fame.
