What if you had the ability to read the mind of the person closest to you and spent every waking hour trying to block out the incessant nagging? Spirit wife delves into the glitzy tradition of husband and wife mentalist teams and takes you behind the glamorous facade. You'll be amazed at how ugly things can get!
Whether performing on a large stage or in an intimate setting, this husband-wife mentalist team delivers interactive entertainment that is suitable for any crowd! Performing together for decades, they are highly experienced. And fresh out of the corporate event circuit, the pair knows the ins and outs of what it takes to be great corporate entertainment! Unfortunately, their success on stage has caused strife in their marriage. They have become a little too psychically attuned to each other.
