Domestic Goddi
Avalon Promotions
World Premiere
‘Pick of the Fringe’ Rosie Wilkinson and BBC Award Winner Helen O’Brien rustle up an organic, gluten-free feast of freshly slaughtered comedy sketches. A palette cleanser of TV chefs, followed by a distorted portion of teenage angst and a casserole of teachers.
Domestic Goddi - don’t feel guilty for not grinding your own flour. Warning: may contain nuts.
