What a great night at.... Book Club... 😉

In Waking Life is a mix of improv and scripted comedy where we meet two normal ladies who can't wait for book club, but once the doors are locked and the coast is clear, those ladies reveal they are the Synsk Sisters: Cora Ethe_real Synsk and Granish Amethyst Synsk.

Much of this show is getting to know these wonderfully joy-filled, spiritual sisters and that honestly worth the price of a ticket. The enthusiasm and energy of Cora and Garnish is infectious and you just want to smile every time they talk to you and encourage your questions.

And when the show turns to more scripted material or when they express genuine moments of hurt feelings, you understand where they are coming from and you are with them as they express themselves.

Being on the side of two larger-than-life personalities that or so vocal about who they are and how they feel can be a challenge; it can almost be overwhelming (speaking as an open & emotional person myself). But I never once felt that way. In-fact, when I had the privilege to speak to the sisters about MY problems, I just wanted to be as quick as I possibly could be so that I could hear everything that they had to say.

I only have one note, but it is a note I will happily remove or amend if I ever see this show again.

The personalities of our two psychics are so strong, quick-witted, and confident with the audience that being able to listen to what they have to say to the public (not exclusively from the questions that are submitted, but just their casual interactions with us as well) is where I felt the true power of this show. Pulling out of that to the 3rd act of the show was where I felt something missing, if only because what had came before was so strong.

But in our audience we had a few people who had a return visit, and thus I state again that my note could be amended.

If the stars aligned and I could see this again I would be happy to because charming, charismatic, and effervescent performers are something rare to find in any individual artist, let alone two partners in the arts. And being able to see the Nordish Synsk sisters perform again and again and exploring their highs and lows together with all of us would be an absolute delight any time, all the time.

So here's hoping I see you all again at.... book club... 😁
