"Best Of" Series- Lois Bromfield & Yakov Smirnoff "New Years Party" Show #262
Lois Bromfield and Yakov Smirnoff, both renowned figures in the comedy world, offer unique and engaging perspectives on the art of stand-up performances. Bromfield, known for her creativity and audience engagement, emphasizes the importance of diversity in comedic backgrounds, exemplified through her introduction of Smirnoff's Russian origins during their shows. Her signature bit, "Sorority Girls From Hell," which captivated audiences and was even adapted by HBO, highlights her ability to connect humorously with a wide range of spectators. Meanwhile, Smirnoff's comedy underscores the universal nature of humor, as he contrasts the freedom of American comedic expression with the restrictions faced by comedians in Russia, adding depth to his performances through his immigrant experience and insights on cultural differences.
