About the Show

Three adopted sisters pursue their dreams in a house full of fossils and unexpected allies.

In a deteriorating house filled with dinosaur bones and fossils, three adopted sisters—Pauline, Petrova, and Posy—embark on a journey of self-discovery and ambition. Under the care and guidance of their guardian Sylvia, their Nana, and a cast of unconventional lodgers, the sisters strive to follow their unique passions.

Despite the challenges of a society not designed for ambitious women, they seek to build their futures, maintain their family bonds, and perhaps even master a few dance steps along the way.
