Double act

by Lucy Shaninghale, Brendan Davis (Editor), Georgy Musky (Translator)

Overview

A double act, also known as a comedy duo, is a comic pairing in which humor is derived from the uneven relationship between two partners, usually of the same gender, age, ethnic origin and profession but drastically different in terms of personality or behavior. Often one of the members of the duo--the straight man, feed, dead wood, or stooge--is portrayed as reasonable and serious, while the other one--the funny man, banana man or comic--is portrayed as funny, less educated or less intelligent, silly, or unorthodox.
