RAC Arena, PerthWhile it does start to feel like ‘older comedian bemoans changing times’, the veteran comic’s 70-minute set is frictionless and funny
While it does start to feel like ‘older comedian bemoans changing times’, the veteran comic’s 70-minute set is frictionless and funny, about 10 minutes into the Australian premiere of his new standup show at Perth’s RAC Arena. In classic “Jerry” form, he’s staring out into the abyss, shoulders raised and face scrunched in bemusement.
Touring Australia for the first time since 2017, the 70-year-old New Yorker is at his crotchety, playful best, donning a slick black suit and charging through vast comedic terrain – from the morbid irony of the Titan submersible, to the woes of modern technology and the business of life and death . “I can’t believe I’m in Perth, Australia,” he bellows, as he runs across the stage, arms flailing in the air. “Perth is so cute, it’s short for perfect.” And Taylor Swift skipped. “Seinfeld and chill” became a thing. He has been heckled by pro-Palestinian protesters: the night after this show, in Sydney, a protester is removed for shouting. “We have a genius, ladies and gentlemen,” Seinfeld told the audience.
