For once, stand-up comics will attend a workshop that doesn't teach them how to write a joke. To be held on January 12, 2019, at The Hive, in Bandra, a closed workshop for members of the comedy circuit in Mumbai will talk about the law around sexual harassment at workplaces. So far, nine men (such as comics Adhiraj Singh and Tushar Abhichandani) and four women have signed up for the event, though not one of the major headlining acts have.
The four-hour workshop was needed when stand-up comedy blew up on the scene. In the last few months, several people from the fraternity have been called out for inappropriate behaviour, including the likes of comic Utsav Chakraborty and the founder of Only Much Louder, Vijay Nair.
