Liz Guterbock: Geriatric Millennial

Crescat Scientia Vita Excolatur

The key to the public experience of Liz Guterbock is her mastery of sonal tone. American at its core, her voice mimics a variety of widely spread accents with effortless ease, perhaps down to the ancient & arcane incatatory magic inherent in the spoken word. The chosen field for her expert oratorial skills is that of the stand-up comedian, & with a good few years of laughter-giving under her belt, she has also has acquir’d some level of mastery in this too.
I’m not gonna change my accent – I like my accent, I lake an accent where you think at any moment I’m going to give you excellent customer service
I’m quite enjoying creating portmanteauxs this Fringe, & Liz’s show can be consider’d among the ‘biocom’ genre of stand-up shows, i.e. a biographical comedy. We travel with her across the Atlantic as she plys her trade from Los Angeles to London, where from the latter place we gain some excellent observatory insights into the living ways of the British. Along the way we learn lots about Liz – from the Lesbian relationship which left her bereft with severe depression & internaliz’d biphobia; to her acceptance of baked beans only in ramekins, if at all.
I know that I’m too cheerful for this island
The chief highlight for me was her extended foray into the belief systems of the Millennial generation, those ‘avacado toast-eating pricks,’ which club she just scrapes into via her birth in 1981 – hence her geriactricity. I myself was born in 1976, & kinda miss’d all the divisive labeling of age groups which began about the time Liz was born, Generation Zs, etc.. It was interesting to learn of some of the deeper nuances to it all, especially when presented by an eminently watchable performer, the elder statesmen of her own generation, whose blend of inviting voice & crystal-clear image making certainly left me feeling entertain’d.
