REVIEW: There were over 60 people in the function room upstairs at the Prince.
The MC for the night, Xavier Susai captured the essence of the evening and had the audience in fits of laughter before the comedians came on.
He told a joke about how Australians have a tendency to be racist and light heartedly added he had had been mistaken for Myuran Sukumaran.
Susai said he could usually tell how good the audience was going to be by the number of mullets and was impressed that there were no mullets in the Bunbury crowd.
The first comedian on was Canadian sensation Brian O’Gorman, who was referred to as one of the best comedians in Australia at the moment.
Bunbury were lucky to be given the opportunity to see him live because it was O’Gorman’s last few days in the country.
The longer the performance went on the crasser it became and the audience had been well prepped with the increase of sexual innuendos.
It was an honest piece of comedy and exposed the personality of O’Gorman in a light hearted but confronting manner.
He touched on aspects of racism as well; he said things like “racism is a sensitive issue for the white people.”
One would describe this as comedy at its finest with no awkward silences and it was relevant to the audience of Bunbury.
Jacques Barrett (and no he is not French, as his name suggests he might be) was the other half of the show.
He is as Australian as you can imagine without being bogan and there seemed to be an ongoing theme discussing the Australian Bogan culture.
Barrett made remarks about the contrast in women around the country. Referring to Sydney women as carrot flavoured chupa chups in comparison to West Australian women who were more rounded.
Having been personally targeted by both comedians made for an embarrassing experience to say the least but it gave the crowd a laugh, which was obviously their intention.
