Drum rolls! The most anticipated Comedy Festival Lineup is announced so that you don’t have any longer in the blue for SXSW Online 2021.
Last year’s nuisance is already left behind as every industry has geared up to simulate regular business as before. The pandemic ruined the environment that the traditional comedy clubs grew gradually. It could not dominate last year, so stand-up comedy programs took their place to give a little dose of laughter to the world full of audience. It reminded the importance of the integrity of the comedy clubs found at every corner of the country. They supported the whole community to give the best show by working with equal admiration for open mic comedians to the world-class league of famous comedians.
This time, SXSW Comedy takes the initiative to call on a few popular comedy venues from all around the country to create a night to remember with her extravagant performances on the live show lineup from the cozy atmosphere of their home stage. It has become almost a year since most of the lauded comedy artists looked at the bright stage lights to set the stage on fire with their punch lines. Each and every comedy club is excited to face the audience and hear the loud claps again after a bad year. They have individually made up a list of shows for each club to perform on the real stage in front of the excited crowd. The whole idea of having a live show has become a time capsule in the history of American comedy.
The clubs should get massive credit for making it possible to be back on the same stage with a house full of crowd. They have put tremendous efforts to bring a handful of the audience to the show lineup and keeping their safety at the top list of priorities. It shows how motivated the clubs are for the first live comedy show of this year. We can only hope to experience the same euphoric world full of laughter by sharing it with everyone else in the big crowd and without the risk of making people sick. Hopefully, in the upcoming months, we all are able to assemble in the same crowd and watch hilarious shows as the laughter warriors return to the stage.
