Comedy

Comedy is a genre of literature, film, and performance that aims to entertain and amuse its audience through humor. It often employs various techniques such as exaggeration, absurdity, wordplay, and satire to highlight imperfections, social issues, or human behavior. Comedic works typically feature light-hearted and humorous plots, engaging characters, and situations that evoke laughter. Despite its focus on humor, comedy can also explore serious themes, often through a comedic lens to provide commentary on society or human nature. Common forms of comedy include stand-up, sitcoms, sketch shows, and comedic films. The essence of comedy lies in its ability to elicit joy and laughter, often providing a sense of relief or escapism from everyday life.
