32 Lavender Close

ABOUT

With Grace Matetoa, Christie van Niekerk

To find a flatmate on the internet when you are in your twenties is a risky business… Carly unexpectedly moves into an apartment with Melo. Together they embark on a journey of discovery about their mental health, sexuality, money, careers and a mysterious vaginal discharge in the bathroom of 32 Lavender Close. It’s an ode to a time when you were not too old to not make the sex joke, but also not cool enough to impress your 15-year-old brother. Keep your friends close… and your flatmate closer.
