As the title hinted, this is a show of two generations almost 50 years apart, showcasing their different generational takes on comedy. Has time changed comedy? Is the age gap so large that jokes are lost in translation for an audience? The usual format was presented from the get go.

The electrically charged emcee, Evan Willey, warmed up the sold-out crowd. His passion for what was about to unfold was unleashed through his enthusiastic spruiking and some sharp observational humour about choosing a dog over having kids.

Next up was Geoff Stainton- clearly a Boomer, highlighted by his attire; T-shirt tucked into his high wasted faded jeans and a giant belt buckle holding said jeans up. As Willey remarked at the end of Stainton’s set, he is the father of dad jokes!

John Wing was the first Zoomer up. A 20 year old self- admitted high school drop out from Mandurah, his set was peppered with ageless stoner humour. The contrast of Wing to Stainton was clearly evident.

The punters weren’t 100% convinced, at this point, with the format- until Nola Bliss shimmied onto stage. The silver- haired grandmother exuded cougar confidence. Her observational humour, mainly about the sex lives of Boomers, had the audience in side-splitting R- rated laughter.

Tahlia Baker showcased her Zoomer set with some acid- tongue jokes about the generation below her- Gen Alpha. Her incisive observations on Eshay culture had the audience in stitches.

To end the show journey man Chris Franklin took to the stage. The 60 year old owned his performance space, with his flannel shirt tied around his waist, jeans and thongs and an A- class mullet to boot. Franklin was a true professional and his set was slick and original.

By the time he finished the audience felt they had got their monies worth. In the end, comedy hasn’t changed throughout the generations; although, there is no substitute for experience when it comes to comic timing.
