Happiness is what every one wish for; making fun and wits with family and friends. The question is do you always require a comedian to make fun? No, says Stanley Lyndon in his famous book 'how to be funny' and he further continue to say you can become a comedian yourself. It is not just that you can be a comedian of repute and attract lot of people. One can achieve all these within seven days from the day you start reading his book.
The most renowned comedian, Stanley Lyndon, the author of the above book has given more than 5000 workshops where he has trained thousands of comedians. He says that comedians can be made and he also says it is not true to say that being a comedian is an inborn gift. Any human being can learn the art of making fun or wit. If one follows the suggestions and understands the illustrations given in the book, he can be a successful comedian. Stanley encourages people to create as much jokes or wit than simply writing jokes.
Stanley also says that a comedian must be a good orator and must speak with confidence and be an observant. These qualities can be developed. The comedian must be a good observant; he must observe the world around him and that would give him enough material to make a wit. The comedian must be an opportunist; in the sense if the audience does not respond to his wit, he must convert that very instance into a good joke.
Stanley suggests that a comedian should develop the character of 'Phoniness' and must learn the art of quick response. Speak about day to day matter and never exaggerate. If you are speaking of an event then highlight the characters which are familiar to the people. Give enough time for the people to understand the wit. Never mind if some in the audience do not respond to the wit. At least enjoy the wit with those who have responded. Stanley warns comedians not to give excessive punch because it may distort the wit.
Jokes can also be made without speaking. This can be done by wearing some costumes or dresses. But, here Stanley is of the opinion that the costume or the dress should have bearing with the character built in the story. Only under such a situation this sort of joke would be effective. Stanley says that those who consciously practice the sessions given in the book can become heroes among the opposite sex.
Stanley's book is the best guide for those who want to make fun and be happy with their wits. The uniqueness of the book is in its practical guide and has numerous illustrations and good summary at the end of each chapter. The book is so popular that during a short span of time it has as much as four reprints and it is one of the top 10 ten selling books. Of course for the convenience of people, it is now marketed online too. If you want to be happy with your family and friends learn to make jokes; be witty irrespective of whether you are comedian or not and for this purpose Stanley Lyndon's great work 'how to be funny' is the best guide.
