Performance Critique: November 24

This is a charity show at a bar that was raising money for wheelchairs. I wish I could find the link, as it’s a great cause. There are around 20 people in the audience.

0m15s Before my intro, the MC requested badass music for his walk off stage, as some slow song came on when the MC came on after the previous comic, so I commented on it

0m50s I could’ve done the Igor face better

1m13s My delivery is off, as I shouldn’t get so many “awwws”

2m34s No need to pause between “float in boat” and “fail math”

2m48s I was overly ready to say “what’s funny about that” and it wasn’t spontaneous enough to get a full laugh like the previous two times

3m24s Point at myself when I say “jewish people” not when I say “bar mitzvah”

3m58s Try going from “my mom tried to boast about my comedy career” straight into her talking

4m15s Take out “am”, it should just be “I pro choice”

4m22s I need a better response, or no response to what mom says

5m49s That got slightly awkward, I should’ve peer pressured him into a high five like I did when I MCed the previous show

6m05s What possesses someone to yell it out?

6m43s Don’t yell it, but still be excited

7m18s I might do it again

7m32s Acknowledge that saying this is messed up, before doing the act out of it

Overall: I did well but I was getting too many sympathy “awwws” throughout the set. I think this was because I wasn’t dressed as nice as usual, so I actually looked pathetic. If I look good, then people laugh at my misfortunes. If I look bad, then it’s just sad. I also need to work out a couple of lines towards the end of the mom bit. Otherwise, my material is working more and more consistently.
