What is an open mic? The talk show open mic is a place for veteran actors to polish their jokes offline and for newbies to take the stage. Even the best actors need to repeatedly refine their jokes to resonate with every audience member and make them laugh heartily. The big characteristic of open mic is the unfixed actors. Maybe you will see the casts of ‘Roast’ and ‘Rock & Roast’. Maybe you will also see a newbie on stage sweating nervously, forgetting lines, and feeling embarrassed. At this time, you should give the newbie the greatest encouragement and not laugh at the actor, because being able to stand on the stage is already remarkable. And most well-known actors are trained from open mics. Each open mic usually lasts for 1.5 hours. There is one host to emcee the show. Six to ten actors take the stage to perform, and each person performs for 5 to 10 minutes.


What is talk show? The accurate translation should be stand-up comedy. It is introduced from Europe and America. It is about a person standing on the stage to amuse everyone. It is a bit like our solo comic talk. The difference is that stand-up comedy pays more attention to interacting with the audience offstage. It mainly tells the trifles that happen in life and is easy to resonate with the audience and trigger laughter. Well-known foreign talk show actors include George Carlin, Louis CK, Jerry Seinfeld, etc. In addition, the popular American TV series ‘The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel’ tells the growth story of talk show actors. In China, the relatively well-known ones are Dayo Wong, Chinese-American actor Joe Wong, and Li Dan and Chi Zi from ‘Roast’.
