Comoedus

/kəˈmiːdəs/ noun

Definition

An archaic Latin term for a comic actor or comedian in ancient theater.

Etymology

From Latin comoedus, itself from Greek komoidos (comic actor). Combines komos (revel) and ode (song), related to comoedia.

Kelly Says

Ancient Greek and Roman comoedi were the stand-up comedians of their time—they performed in front of thousands, used slapstick and insults, and were sometimes more popular than tragic actors!
