Po’ Boys and Oysters

A sharp and funny family queer dramedy about love, class, and belonging.

When a Black lesbian couple of Haitian descent settle in Tāmaki Makaurau with dreams of adopting a child, they quickly discover that family—chosen and biological—comes with rivalries, secrets, and the occasional plate of oysters.

Written by Estelle Chout and directed by Dione Joseph, Po’ Boys and Oysters brings Caribbean flair to Aotearoa’s stage, weaving together biting humour, intimate truths, and the everyday politics of love and survival. With a stellar cast including Sonya Renee Taylor, Sandra Zvenyika, and Estelle Chout, this acclaimed work serves up a delicious feast of passion, identity, and the hunger to create home.

Back for its highly anticipated second season, this story brims with heart, laughter, and the fire of community.
