The comedy musical of your Sapphic dreams!
Ellis wakes up in a turbulent fever dream created by the Gods of Sapphic Desire. Mia and Finlay, self-proclaimed expert angel dykes, say she’s expected to “reflect” on her life or some crap like that.
One magic diary and twelve comical tunes later, these three hot queers learn something important: being a disaster is not a unique talent, it’s just embarrassing. Oh well, at least there are sexy togas!
