Celebrating Transgender Awareness Week
Wigstock: The Movie
Outrageous, outlandish and totally out of the closet, Wigstock: The Movie is a heavily mascaraed look at New York's most extravagant celebration of drag! "Colorful, flamboyant [and] extremely funny" (Blockbuster Entertainment Guide), this uninhibited look at the annual Wigstock Festival takes you behind the scenes - and into the dressing rooms - for an uproarious play-by-play of the self-proclaimed "Super Bowl of drag"! A "glitzy, lively, lovingly made show" (The Hollywood Reporter), Wigstock: The Movie features inspired music, daring performance art and a peek at the stars' endless quests to be fabulous -- wearing size 14 heels! With RuPaul, Lypsinka, Crystal Waters, The "Lady" Bunny, Deee-Lite, Alexis Arquette, Jackie Beat, John Kelly, Debbie Harry and the Dueling (Tallulah) Bankheads (!), Wigstock: The Movie is a dazzling musical celebration of life, love and lipstick!
