Vida Slayman in The Nutella Wars

Comedy • Storytelling
South Australia • World Premiere

Hey, did your mum ever hide sweets from you when you were a kid? Mine too! Nutella especially. We were newly-arrived immigrants and we were poor, and Nutella was for rich kids.

The Nutella Wars is choc full of stories about growing up in war (hilarious, I promise) and moving to Australia. Like my joy at finding a tub of ice cream buried at the back of the freezer, and my heartbreak to realise it was just cooked lentils. Also featuring a 1976 Holden Kingswood named Bertha. Vida Slayman has performed at Adelaide Fringe, Edinburgh Fringe and Melbourne International Comedy Festival. Bring your tablespoons.

★★★★  “A genuinely funny show delivered with confidence and aplomb.” – GlamAdelaide

Presented by: Vida Slayman
