As has been observed, this very particular way of doing humor is distinguished from the others by various aspects, one of them is the fact that it arises from daily stories and experiences of the humorist, which can be real or false.

In this sense, it can be said that the stand up is a way of getting closer to the public, unlike the other traditional ways of making humor, since the attendees of the event, most of the cases end up identifying with the stories of the humorist and that is precisely what generates the greatest impact. The themes that are touched on in the show, generally come together in an erratic and very diverse way, that is, they can start from personal anecdotes to reflections about life itself.
This genre of comedy is based on the need for the person to spend some time being happy, that they can laugh at themselves and others. In short, a humorous proposal that contemplates reality, leaving aside the tragic or drama-filled dimension of life.
