Stand-up comedy

An act of stand-up comedy is a comic performance in front of an audience that is addressed straight from stage. A comic, comedian, or just a stand-up performer are all terms used to describe the performer.
Stand-up as a western art form has its origins in the traditions of vaudeville, burlesque, and English music hall that flourished in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
Stand-up comedy as a term was first recorded in 1911 in The Stage, which described a Miss Nellie Perrier performing "'stand up' comic ditties in a chic and charming manner." The term was used to describe a performance of comedy songs rather than true stand-up comedy in true terms, rather than a performance of comedy songs.
On the 10th of November 1917, the "Stage Gossip" feature in the Yorkshire Evening Post recounted the career of Finlay Dunn, a stage actor. According to the report, Dunn performed "as what he refers to as a stand-up comedian." As opposed to the 1911 review of Nellie Perrier, this usage is more convincing because, despite performing as a comedy piano act for the majority of his career, one of his favourite strands included joking about his large physical size, which was described as "good buffoonery in evening dress, with no accessories whatever," although the story was published in 1917, it refers to an earlier phase of his career. Dunn may have performed as a stand-up comedian in the late nineteenth century or the twentieth century, depending on the source. It is also likely that Dunn used the word retroactively while reminiscing about his previous life; however, it is not known when his stand-up act was first performed on stage.

Stanford University

Stanford University, officially known as Leland Stanford Junior University, is a private research university located in the California city of Stanford. More than 17,000 students attend the university, which is spread over 8,180 acres (3,310 hectares), making it one of the biggest in the country. Academic journals rate Stanford as one of the world's top institutions, and it is no surprise.
Stanford University was established in 1885 by Leland and Jane Stanford in memory of their only child, Leland Stanford Jr., who died of typhoid illness at the age of 15 the previous year. Stanford is the oldest university in the United States. Former California governor and U.S. senator Leland Stanford earned his wealth as a railroad magnate before going on to become a politician. The school, which was founded as a coeducational and nondenominational institution on October 1, 1891, welcomed its first pupils. Stanford University had financial difficulties after the death of Leland Stanford in 1893, and again during the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, which severely destroyed most of the campus. As a result of World War II, provost Frederick Terman encouraged professors and alumni to pursue entrepreneurial endeavours in order to establish self-sufficient local industry in what would eventually become known as Silicon Valley.
As of April 2021, Stanford was home to 85 Nobel laureates, 29 Turing Award laureates, and eight Fields Medalists, all of whom were either students, graduates, professors, or employees at the university. Additionally, Stanford is well-known for its entrepreneurship programmes, and it is one of the most successful institutions in terms of obtaining venture capital investment for start-ups. Stanford graduates have established a slew of businesses that together generate more than $2.7 trillion in yearly sales and support 5.4 million employment, which is approximately equal to the 7th biggest economy in the world as of 2011. (as of 2020). Stanford has produced one president of the United States (Herbert Hoover), 74 surviving millionaires, and 17 astronauts, among other notable alumni. It is also one of the top producers of Fulbright Scholars, Marshall Scholars, Rhodes Scholars, and members of the United States Congress, among other distinctions.
