It's My First Time by Jay Gilden Comedy FRINGE REVIEW

12 Mar 2017


New-comer comedian Jay Gilden has successfully popped his comedy cherry with his 'It's My First Time' stand-up show.

An audience of over 400 members came to see the newbie's act at The Peacock in Gluttony, while Gilden gleefully declared that now they've bought tickets, he doesn't need to perform a great show. Gilden's unique, crude dark-comedy transformed every day insights into his life, into cynical social commentary about life, love, and Pauline Hanson, sincerely. 


As with all initial shows, there were a few hits and misses. Yet, with a strong start and end, an assured on-stage persona, and a few well constructed jokes, the 22-year-old comic brought the audience an entertaining hour with 'It's My First Time'.

For a first show, Gilden pulled an amazing crowd, scored some well-deserved laughs, and introduced many to his non-conventional, and sometimes insulting style of comedy. As a comedian who will soon be known for taking big risks, it is clear Gilden will come to produce more great shows as his career evolves and progresses.
