Reclaiming the Female Body and Self-Deprecation in Stand-Up Comedy
Positives and negatives: reclaiming the female body and self-deprecation in stand-up comedy TOMSETT, Eleanor <http://orcid.org/0000-0003-1645-9556> Available from Sheffield Hallam University Research Archive (SHURA) at: http://shura.shu.ac.uk/18629/ This document is the author deposited version.

Positives and negatives: Reclaiming the female body and self-deprecation in stand-up comedy. Abstract Drawing on existing research into feminist humour, this article argues that many of the functions of self-deprecation within comic performance that have been identified and explored in relation to the American context of the late 90s and early 2000s are still evident on the current UK circuit. Self-deprecation in stand-up comedy by women continues to be understood as both positive (as part of the rise of popular feminisms) and negative (as reinforcing patriarchal norms). These contradictory understandings of self-deprecation in stand-up comedy are always inextricably linked to the identities of the audiences for such humour. I consider how emergent female stand-up performers may rationalise and understand the role self-deprecation plays within their own work in the current British context. -
