Actually, either one works. If you're in Spain or somewhere else where the vosotros form is used, this sentence calls for "os". In other areas where vosotros is not commonly used, this sentence needs "les".
The indirect object in this sentence is "ti y tu novia", which is 2nd person. The IOP for 2nd person plural is "os".
If the object were singular, it would be more evident:
Ellos te presentan la obra a ti.

les
Ellos les presentan la obra a ti y tu novia. Ellos is 3rd person plural, so we use les. Here's the link to the indirect object pronouns

The i.o.p. has nothing to do with "Ellos"". - 0074b507, Feb 23, 2010
