La emergencia del stand-up en Ciudad de México, el caso de Carlos Ballarta
Abstrak
In Mexico, stand-up is emerging as a result of the reciprocal action between the audiovisual media, digital culture, the development of venues dedicated to this activity and the autonomy of the stand-upers dedicated to the genre. Although stand-up comedy was imported from the United States, where it has made its own way from the margins to the mainstream, it has not yet become part of legitimate culture. This cultural production takes place outside the institutions that validate culture, even as it benefits from massive distribution on Internet platforms, and even if it is entering on stages previously intended for theatre or music.This article analyses the genealogy of this cultural production, particularly in Mexico City, from the creation of an audience to its massification. Carlos Ballarta’s work is remarkable for its humour, which is characterised by the exhibition of marginality on different levels, thus restoring stand-up to its place as a mauvais genre, but in the mainstream.
