Featured Review from Austin360
February 09, 2009From the promoter:
Will Charlotte ever find her dream man? Can Joe escape the shadow of his Mother? Can Waldo save the Dwarf Maiden in his favorite computer game? Will Harry ever commit to one girl at a time? Will Tina get married just because she is pregnant? Who will they be and who will love them? Can Hope overcome Fear? This is the mind of the Urban Hipster, and these are The Secret Lives of InBetweeners.
