How do comedians use their bodies as a defining feature of their onstage identity and as a tool for establishing a relationship with the audience?

I had to miss the last Funny Rabbit due to Covid. So to avoid wasting all the prep I'd done for what was to be the Funny Rabbit Halloween Special, I now declare that
THIS FRIDAY'S FUNNY RABBIT WILL BE THE FUNNY RABBIT HALLOWEEN SPECIAL 2025.

Heartily recommend Nigel Planer's autobiography Young Once - not least because look who's mentioned ON THE VERY FIRST FLIPPIN' PAGE!!
Nigel has written a book that's fun and interesting and sometimes moving.
I zipped through it quickly, because it's such a joy to read.

Weird shop names in Essen. The third one makes "Nanu-Nana" sound positively normal.

Here's what I'm in Essen to do - tonight's keynote for Materiality Matters: Figurations of Comic Bodies and Things.
I'm using Lenny Bruce's tattoo as a starting point.
And the papers we've had do far have been ace!

When you ask an audience a question in song, and their own confusion is enough to make 'em laugh.
A little moment from my beans song at the Bean Summit on Wednesday.
Beans - good for you, good for your purse, good for the planet!

Giving a keynote at a conference in Essen, Germany next week.
First pic shows the title - first slide of the PowerPoint.
Second pic gives you an idea of the kind of frenzied process of putting it all together.
Just a few finishing touches and it's ready to go!

Today, I've been compering the Bean Summit - part of a campaign to persuade people to eat more beans - they're cheap, healthy and good for the planet.
I debuted a new song I wrote about beans. I knew it was going down well when I saw people getting their phones out.

My Dad's 2nd Lieutenant's cap from when he did National Service in the early 1950s.
Dad was a lifelong socialist but was very proud of having passed his officer training.
The cap's in a sorry state. Any ideas how I could get it restored?

Sign in Helsinki train carriage on Sunday, advising passengers on travel etiquette.
Kind of ambiguous.
Are they saying "If you wear perfume, don't overdo it"?
Or are they saying, "Everyone must wear a moderate amount of perfume"?

Collage art quiz!
Can you name the green-faced singer in the collage I made for this week's Funny Rabbit?
And the parrot that's coming out of her eye was taken from a comic book of an iconic comedy double act. Can you name that double act?
