THE KRANSKY SISTERS – THREE BAGS FULL
Banquet Room – AFTC
Until 14 Jun 2008
Review by Laraine Ball
Slapstick, loud gestures and fast movements are not required when these girls hit the stage. Dressed in
their signature costumes of white polka dot shirts, long black skirts and little red ribbon ties, they
emanate a mournful aura of repression and control.
Mourne, Eve and Dawn’s eccentric deadpan humour is subtle and intelligent, a look or a raised eyebrow
is more than enough to make a point and it quickly captivates and beguiles everyone in the room.
Although the girls dress alike, during the performance three very distinct personalities emerge as they
tell stories of their bizarre home life, their road trip adventures and sing versions of popular songs in
their own inimitable way.
These musical items are extremely clever and interesting, the arrangements are so different to the
original versions that, when recognition dawns, it seems amazing that it can really be such a familiar and
well known song.
A good dose of what these three vibrant but sombre faced spinsters have to offer is the perfect way to
unwind at the end of a busy day.
