It’s fast, furious and funny. Characterised by quick-fire dialogue, American comedy tends to be more wordy than the UK variety; ‘punch line’ and ‘one liners’ being intrinsic ingredients. It requires quick wit, sharp insights and rapid reaction. Listen. At its best it’s among the best in the world. Unforgettable.
