John Cleese Will Avoid Colleges: He Says They’re Too Politically Correct for Comedy
Another comedian has called out college campuses for being humorless. John Cleese, the actor and writer who elevated silliness to an art form with “Monty Python’s Flying Circus” and “Fawlty Towers” along with movies and books and all sorts of things, said recently that he’s been warned not to perform on university campuses. The students are too apt to take offense instead of giggling. Jerry Seinfeld avoids colleges. Chris Rock said students are too worried about offending people.
