NICE THINGS: A Queer Love Story finds a gay couple, in the midst of their comfortable years. They have everything; a beautiful flat, three holidays a year and truly envious instagram grids. But when one of them comes out as nonbinary, their idealised picket fence lifestyle is threatened by only one thing – each other.
NICE THINGS: A Queer Love Story is co-produced by Luke Hereford and Porter’s Theatre Cardiff. It is made possible by the Arts Council of Wales, sponsored by Welsh Government
