In her performance of Goldfish, Ailsa Bath was captivated by Nina Gilligan's relatable and effortless humor. With a three-star rating, Gilligan's show took the audience on a comical journey through the life of a middle-aged woman. Her target audience was a mix of women above 40 and men under 30, and while some of the references went over the heads of the younger crowd, they still received big laughs from the rest of the audience.
Gilligan's relatability and natural humor were the highlights of the show, although Bath admits there were fewer big laughs than expected. But that didn't take away from the overall enjoyment of the performance. The credit for the show's success goes to Steve Ullathorne, who captured Gilligan's act perfectly in his photography.
Goldfish not only provided a good laugh, but it also tackled important issues faced by women in healthcare and the comedy industry. Bath acknowledges that these topics may sound dull and serious, but Gilligan's skillful delivery made them light-hearted and relatable. She effortlessly switched from a powerful rallying cry to a spectacular rendition of "I Will Survive," all while wearing a goldfish costume.
The show was full of surprises, from bubble guns to fortune-telling fish, making it impossible not to love. It was held at Just the Tonic Nucleus in the Sub-Atomic Room from August 6th to 11th, and 13th to 25th.
