About a Goth
@Rialto_Brighton
Nick is 17, a goth and very gay. His misadventures include working with old people, being in love with his straight mate, and of hating his family for refusing to reject him due to his sexuality. Less a comedy about coming out, more one of coming to terms with oneself.
