Laugh Lab <\/em>looks at the history of English-language humour from Quebec, with a special focus on Quebec City. Different forms of humour from 1759 to the present day are examined, ranging from mindless slapstick to highbrow poetry. This exhibit shows us that what is funny to some may be offensive to others. Yesterday\u2019s jokes don\u2019t always translate well to current values, while others are timeless.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n
