One of the best elements of live comedy for me is the composure required by performers to deliver the humor without succumbing to it. The seasoned comedy watcher can spot a quivering lip, a coy hand to the face to mask a chuckle, but best Improv troupes, the likes of UCB Theater, and the cast on live TV such as SNL, have got it down. But you wouldn’t know that by watching this SNL clip of Debbie Downer. Not at all.
