Dear Mike,
I am glad to know that you are studying Chinese art. As a traditional form of Chinese comedy, crosstalk is really worth studying.
You asked me about the origin of crosstalk . Crosstalk started in Beijing Qing Dynasty, and can be performed by one person, two people or more. The performers of crosstalk usually try to amuse the audience by singing,talking, and telling jokes, which is similar to western stand-up.
As for the famous crosstalk performers, one of the well-known crosstalk artists is Zhu Shaowen, whose master is Ma Sanli, who was born in a crosstalk famlily. Besides, quite a few famous artists are still active on stage, among whom are Jiang Kun, Feng Gong and Niu Qun.
I hope my letter can be of help. If you want to know about Chinese crosstalk, feel free to e-mail me.
Yours truly,
Li Hua
