What a Performance! / What? a Performance?

What you get on this is a performance by a character. There was no actual interaction other than as a foil to the delivered script which which is at the level of a children's pantomime with cringey jokes that you are very directly invited to laugh at. The "story" is that you are all trainee witches in thrall to the hilarious guide. We found it difficult to follow the over-theatrical delivery or care about what was being said as it all sounded disingenuous. This is a potentially fascinating subject that played second fiddle to the script, questions or genuine interaction were not encouraged. This might be appreciated by others but we found it disappointing, underwhelming and somewhat patronizing. Our guide played the role he was engaged to and delivered his script, it felt very manufactured.

Not great. Can't relate to to the narration. The guide spoke with a particular accent and the narrative seems to go from here and there. She tried to lighten things up but they are really not funny to me.

Tour with Oleander Sage was very disappointing despite the incredible atmosphere. She forgot her script more than once and needed to pause to refocus her thoughts on where she was in her performance, which caused the group to lose interest. Although it was only an hour, it was a sincere waste of our time and money.
Well worth the cost, very entertaining.
