"Brilliant Comediennes also excellent musicians"

 

Theatrereview 2010

 

 

"The Kransky Sisters are a well oiled comic machine. Their droll humour, deadpan expressions and morose delivery of songs by the likes of AC/DC and The Eurythmics proved to be the perfect recipe for laughter. "

 

Sunday Times Review Perth 2007

 

 

"A truly bizarre, and utterly funny show. The fantastic characters are not unlike a cross between the Sugababes and the Adams Family."

 

Edinburgh Fringe Reviews

 

 

"The success of the show lies in the precision of the music, and a narrative that lures the audience, rocking with laughter into a totally unsavoury, insular world".

 

The Independent, Scotland

 

 

"If Dame Edna ever retired to the Outback and procreated, the result might be something like the Kranskys."

 

Kate Copstick, The Scotsman

 

 

"The Kransky Sisters are three blissfully deadpan characters, who are blissfully unaware of why they are funny."

 

Adam Hills Comedian

 

 

"These dour maidens are fast becoming comedic icons to stand alongside dame Edna herself."

 

dB Magazine

 

 

"Like the acid fuelled imagining of Hunter S Thompson at a Country Women’s Association meeting, this unstuck comic creation is bizarre and precious….These women are the comedic equivalent of Star Trek. So complete and meticulous is their creation, you can almost imagine a future of Kransky conventions."

 

Helen Razer The Age 2005

 

 

"Returning once again from their remote Queensland home, the Sisters are a frighteningly innovative trio. Armed with a tuba, ancient pink keyboard, folksy guitar and saw-violin, their renditions of tunes ranging from Pink Floyd to Jewel are effortlessly funny on their own. The Kranskys are comic creations of a disturbingly believable kind. Darkly hilarious and discomfortingly clever."

 

John Bailey, Beat Magazine 2005

 

 

"Bust-a-gut, shed-a-tear, sputteringly funny… Up there with Dame Edna… Don’t even think about missing this show."

 

Helen Razer, The Age. MICF 2004

 

 

"As creepy as it is hilarious… and best of all, original. Could have watched them all night."

 

Emma Nelms (Internet review)

 

 

"A truly bizarre, and utterly funny show. The fantastic characters are not unlike a cross between the Sugababes and the Adams Family."

 

Edinburgh Fringe Reviews

 

 

"This folk-singing trio of spinsters in search of spouses are brooding, Gothic and unhealthily codependent. The girls from Esk cover tunes by artists as diverse as Nana Mouskouri, The Carpenters, Marvin Gaye, The Sugar Babes and Pink. A show full of strange behaviour, blinkered outlooks and beautiful harmonies."
