032: Christine Basil – Be truthful to yourself in comedy

Some might say that Christine Basil was a late starter in the
stand-up comedy scene. But she didn't let her marriage, kids
and dogs get in the way. Kicking off in 1991, Christine has since
taken her comedy around the world, and seen her write and perform
TV comedy shows including Full Frontal, Totally Full Frontal, and
Skithouse, to name a few. She also had a successful stint on
commercial radio. With that experience, it's no wonder she's
a popular comedy coach for up and coming comedians on the
Australian comedy festival circuit.


In this School of Hard Knock Knocks podcast episode, we discuss
her visual approach to writing jokes, her advice for up and
comers, and being truthful to oneself in comedy. If you're
starting out in comedy, or have been on the open mic circuit for
a while and need a boost, you'll enjoy this interview with
Christine Basil.
