Aunty Donna’s Coffee Cafe on ABC – Created by Aunty Donna, the six-part series follows the adventures of three best mates running a trendy Melbourne café.
Hell-bent on creating the best joint in the neighbourhood (without having any of the necessary skills), Mark, Zach and Broden embark on weekly adventures that cover everything from dealing with a bad review to calming evil spirits who have a penchant for Gardening Australia.
It’s a ridiculously fun, rollicking series featuring songs, characters, celebrity cameos and constant left turns. However, at the heart of this show is a story about three friends working together to make something special.
Appearing alongside Aunty Donna’s Mark Samual Bonanno, Broden Kelly, and Zachary Ruane are Gaby Seow (Late Night with the Devil, Get Krack!n), Sally-Anne Upton (Wentworth, Neighbours), Michelle Brasier (Drunk History Australia, Stories from Oz, Mad as Hell), Vidya Rajan (At Home Alone Together) and Mish Wittrup (Aunty Donna: Glennridge Secondary College.)
Special guest stars include Richard Roxburgh, Pia Miranda, Nazeem Hussain, Miranda Tapsell, Shaun Micallef, Tony Martin, Melanie Bracewell, Steven Oliver, Sam Pang and Sammy J.
