Heckler is a fascinating documentary that examines the tactics employed by hecklers to disrupt live performances, especially stand up comedy shows. Audiences have long been divided on the subject of heckling – some support it as an essential part of the show, while others denounce it as disruptive and disrespectful. The documentary delves into this complex debate, featuring interviews with comedians, audience members as well as hecklers themselves. It provides valuable insight into the motivations behind heckling, and how it affects both performers and spectators.

The film also highlights two distinct types of hecklers – those who are interested in adding to the show through participation, and those whose goal is simply to disrupt or insult the performer. Professional comedians often note that these two types act very differently on stage, and each one has its own unique challenges for dealing with them. From crowd control techniques to snappy comebacks, Heckler gives viewers an inside look at how performers handle these situations gracefully (or not so gracefully).

For anyone interested in comedy, Heckler is an absolute must-watch. With its unique perspective on audience dynamics and performer-heckler relationships, it offers plenty of food for thought that could have implications beyond just comedy shows. Viewers can expect to come away from this documentary with a deeper understanding of the role played by hecklers in any kind of performance setting – seeing things from all sides of the issue. So don’t wait – grab a bag of popcorn and dive into this entertaining yet thought-provoking film!
