Assignment 4

On the second page, discuss the elements of dream-work that may be present in the comedy sketch or stand-up bit. Condensation, displacement and imagery are all present in dreams, metaphor and comedy, perhaps in different ways. Examine your chosen comedy for the presence of one or more of these elements and analyze how it works in creating humor.

We'll talk about how Bill Hicks uses condensation, displacement and imagery in his comedy in class.
