A funny, raw and candid digital series that focuses on two aging party girls who struggle to keep up their fabulous facade, every week, in the bathroom of their favorite NYC nightclub.
Potty Break gives you two robust characters who are raw and talk candidly about several themes. The episodes serve as separate vignettes with each touching on a different topic. These fashion focused vignettes show us why women always go to the bathroom together.
