The dungeon is often a very serious place. However, at times tickling the funny bone is more enjoyable than subspace! Allena will review some of these aspects, including:

-the relationship between humor and humiliation
-times when humor is particularly effective
-types of humor
-examples of humor within a scene
-importance of timing
-humor projected inwards, between the people in a scene, versus humor projected outwards, towards and audience – and times when it crosses those boundaries
