Abstract

Like Hannah Gadsby, Dave Chappelle understands the art of quitting. At the end of his 2021 Netflix special The Closer, a show full of jokes about LGBTQ people, Chappelle announces that he is “done” making such jokes “until we are both sure that we are laughing together.” Chappelle’s performance of quitting inverts the politics and structure of Gadsby’s Nanette (2017), in which she infamously quit comedy because it reinforced her marginalization as a gender-nonconforming lesbian.

和Hannah Gadsby一样，Dave Chappelle懂得辞职的艺术。在2021年网飞特辑《Closer》的结尾，Chappelle宣布他“不再”开这样的玩笑了，“直到我们都确定我们在一起笑。”Chappelle的退出表演颠覆了Gadsby的《Nanette》（2017）的政治和结构，在这部电影中，她臭名昭著地退出了喜剧，因为它强化了她作为一个性别不合的女同性恋者的边缘化。
