When couples perform physical comedy together across cultural boundaries

My partner and I perform together in a multicultural comedy troupe and we're constantly navigating what's funny versus what's offensive across different backgrounds, and lately we're second-guessing every bit we write together. We used to trust our instincts but now we're paralyzed by overthinking every gesture and joke.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The fear of cultural missteps has replaced creative spontaneity with anxious self-censorship.
