In a rather hot and cramped boardroom at Three Degrees in the QV building, Caroyln Chillura, Gavin Baskerville and Wendy Little take us on a journey in and out of Generation X – the highs and the lows, the expectations and the embarrassments, the Bradys and the Cobains. The Boomers before us and the Generation Y-ers after us get a serve or two as well, but nothing comes off as malicious or mean-spirited. In fact, all three comedians are genuinely likable and friendly, even extending their thanks to us for being such a good audience in such an uncomfortable room.

First to take the stage is Carolyn Chillura, who was raised by TV and is confused by emoticons. She’s got a warm and chatty manner and whilst a little nervous, still did well enough. Gavin Baskerville delivered a tight set concentrated mostly around the follies of youth (both of our own and those of others). His relaxed style and pithy observations particularly appealed to my funnybone and I found myself laughing at, of all things, kids with allergies. Rounding out this trio is Wendy Little with her guitar and gentle humour, serenading us with reworkings of famous songs from the X time period. The clear stand-out here was her charming ode to the joys of self-love in the age of Internet vanity searches.

If you are of the X generation, you are sure to see yourself and your friends in much of the material shared in this show. Don’t be afraid to ‘fess up to having dressed like Boy George, and expect to have The Divinyls’ “I Touch Myself” stuck in your head for the next few days. Party on, dude.
