Boys taste better with nutella
Presented by Backyard Theatre Collective.
Aggy & Frederick may be self-loathing, socially anxious & addicted to food, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. With Aggy once again falling for the wrong guy & Frederick's most fulfilling connection being with his internet provider, they review the best (and worst) moments of their past relationships. Using comedic storytelling, kitsch dance moves and hazelnut spread, Boys Taste Better with Nutella explores relationships and self-worth.
