Have Yourself A Very Kransky Christmas
Presented by Adelaide Festival Centre and A List Entertainment in association with QPAC
The Kransky Sisters invite you to join them in the kookiest festive celebration this side of Esk.
For the very first time audiences can experience Christmas at The Kransky’s in A Very Kransky Christmas at Adelaide Festival Centre’s Space Theatre from 8 to 10 December.
Cloistered in the old rickety family house in their hometown of Esk in Queensland, the musical sisters’ traditional Christmas festivities have until now been shrouded in secrecy. For this very special season, they let you into their world of egg nog, panty-hose and painted chokoes. From Enya to Silent Night, Daft Punk to The Twelve Days Of Christmas, these dysfunctional sisters take family get-togethers to a new level.
A Very Kransky Christmas will feature crowd favourites and new Christmas numbers from the highly acclaimed group, performed on their unusual array of instruments from cheese grater to toilet brush, and from tuba to musical saw.
A not-so-silent night of whacky weirdness to get you in the Festive spirit!

The Kransky Sister
In a quiet town in the middle of south east Queensland lives a huddle of strange sisters, whom, in between tending ants, knitting egg warmers, and hanging out cane toad skins to dry, travel around the country performing their popular musical shows to a growing following. This oddball musical trio marry curious real life stories with a host of uniquely homemade arrangements of popular songs gleaned from their old wireless in a highly entertaining event.
With kitchen pot, toilet brush, keyboard, musical saw, tuba, guitar and duelling tambourines these three weird yet endearing spinsters present offbeat covers of songs ranging from Nana Mouskouri and Eurythmics to Talking Heads and The Bee Gees.
The combination of the Sisters’ sheltered view of the world seen through their superbly droll comic dialogue, and alluring musical sound makes this night out with your strange old aunts an unforgettable experience.
The Kransky Sisters have been regular guests on television including SBS’s In Siberia Tonight and ABC’s The Side Show and Spicks and Specks and BBC’s Comedy Shuffle.
