THEY'RE one of the most popular acts entertaining agricultural shows across Queensland.
After first launching six years ago, The CrackUp Sisters quickly won over fans with their masterful combination of slapstick comedy, acrobatics and whip cracking talent.
S.T.Ruth (aka Amanda-Lyn Pearson) was one of the founding Sisters and has more recently been joined by Twiggy and Rowdy - both of whom match their stage sibling's enthusiasm and comic talent with ease.
It was on the agricultural show circuit that they became household names, which is why the committed sisters were compelled to give back to the communities that have fervently supported them over the years.
For the past seven weeks, The CrackUp Sisters have been touring Queensland, with the support of a government grant, to spread some cheer during the tough times.
They racked up a whopping 6700 kilometres on the journey, performed at 51 shows and taught 54 workshops. S.T.Ruth estimated they'd performed in front of 34,000 people.
It was at the last appearance of this trip, the Nambour Show, that Queensland Country Life caught up with the sisters.
S.T.Ruth said this year was really about bolstering agricultural shows by getting people to become more involved in them.
"So we went and we taught some workshops to the kids before the show," she said.
"We taught them about whip cracking and acrobatics and making an act.
"So we made an act about the show and what they love about the show, which brought in their families and gave them a better sense of belonging to the show."
She said the sustainability of agricultural shows was important as they enabled communities to come together and celebrate their local regions.
"Support your Queensland show, get involved, be a volunteer," S.T.Ruth said.
"If you've got an idea, get in there and make it happen because it only happens if we all make it happen."
