Joan Capri (Barcelona, July 10, 1917 - Barcelona, February 4, 2000) was a Catalan actor, humorist, and monologuist. His real name was Joan Camprubí i Alemany. His participation in plays and monologues made him an emblem of Catalan humor in the 20th century. With a kindly but incisive irony, he became a caricature of the average urban Catalan that made several generations laugh.[1]
