A funny, tender romantic comedy, full of song and heart. Will she stay, or will she go now?!

The Glass Slipper Tavern is the only pub for miles in Yellow Springs, a district of canola fields and cattle farms. Lola and her entrepreneurial long-term partner and band member, Chico, never thought they’d settle down in the country, let alone inherit a pub from Lola’s estranged, white fella uncle! Lola and Chico become the first and only blackfellas to run a pub in the district.

Among other things the tavern needs new solar panels and Chico is hoping the CWA’s annual fundraiser, a karaoke night will cover it as it’s not easy operating on a shoestring budget. With the help of Roxy, a savvy local barmaid with secret talents they are just hanging on. A funny, tender romantic comedy, full of song and heart “will she stay, or will she go now?”
