Humorous interpretation is a performance art that combines acting and comedy to entertain an audience. Participants often take a piece of literature, such as a poem or a short story, and present it in a funny and exaggerated manner. The goal is to highlight the humor in the text while showcasing the performer’s creativity and comedic timing. In competitions, performers are judged on their ability to engage the audience, use of character voices, and overall presentation. This form of interpretation allows for a playful exploration of themes and characters, making it a popular choice in events like forensics and speech tournaments.
