GROWING UP GRACEFULLY

Trailer

"Sharp, surreal satire on womanhood that Australia needs" - Guardian

From sister comedy duo Hannah and Eliza Reilly and celebrated Australian producer Julian Morrow (The Chaser, The Letdown), this humorous series explores what it means to be a woman in the 21st century, weighing in on broad and universal themes including courtship, sex, career and spirituality. After discovering the 1950s teen advice book "Growing Up Gracefully," Hannah and Eliza ask themselves - as two misguided twenty-somethings growing up in a generation raised by the internet - how do we learn to become fully functioning adults? As they take on the six key milestones of adulthood, Hannah - the reckless party girl - road tests the stuffy ladies etiquette of the past, and Eliza - the dorky home body -is forced to follow the new-fangled women's advice of today. A social media sensation, skits from the series reached over 10 million people on Facebook alone, with #GrowingUpGracefully trending nationally on Twitter - reaching over 3.5 million people during the show's premiere season on ABC TV in Australia.
