Psycho or Psychic

It's a story of a girl who's psychic but no one believes her...

Expect playful clowning comedy with TRUE stories of meeting souls.

Ridiculousness, laughing till you cry... it's unique, rare and beautiful!

 

Come to the brink of madness… 

You’ll meet character after character in this 

BOLD-UNHINGED-LAUGH OUT LOUD-Hour of POWER! 

 

You'll go through a wild ride as you laugh hysterically before leaving feeling completely captivated.

Realising life is beautiful... and a wild ride haha.
