Nelson Fringe: Waste Not Want Not: Bethany's Guide...

Waste Not Want Not : Bethany's Guide to the Thrift Life

Bethany is the Queen of Resourcefulness. In her quirky (and musical!) storytelling solo show, Bethany opens up about her tips, tricks and the frightful lengths she's gone to save food, money... well anything and everything really. It’s a hot handy hack guide for all, a celebration of weird uniqueness, and a microscope into hoarding.

“More than enjoyable, and well worth a watch” - Art Murmurs
“Easily one of the best Fringe shows this year” - Audience Feedback (NZ Fringe 2019)

“Such a wholesome and infectiously good time” - Audience Feedback

“Her singing enlivens the narrative” - Theatreview
