He’s young, he's broke, his landlord's knocking at the door, and he's just found out his wife is going to have a baby. To make matters even more desperate, he is fired from his gig as an Elvis impersonator in a run down, small-town Florida dive bar. When the bar owner brings in a B-level drag show to replace him, Casey finds that he has a whole lot to learn about show business - and himself. After reluctantly filling in for one of the girls, he trades his sequined jumpsuit for a sequined dress. Casey evolves his new act into a drag persona that is uniquely his. This music-filled, fierce, fabulous showbiz comedy celebrates finding your voice and singing your own song. Includes strong language and adult themes.
