The Wedding Date meets The Birdcage in this laugh-out-loud gay romantic comedy from Andrew Grey
Heâs here to slayâĻbut will he stay?
James Petika is living the single gay life he always wanted. A police officer in Chicago, he has a good job, good friendsâand heâs two thousand miles away from his familyâs expectations. He also has a problem: he needs a date for his sisterâs wedding in Missoula, Montana, but his family has no idea that heâs gay, and heâd like to keep it that way.
The solution? Daniel Bonafonte aka Lala Traviata, the queen of the Chicago drag scene. Lala is the real thing: she can sing, she can danceâand she can throw more shade than a solar eclipse. One drink and plenty of dishing later, Daniel agrees to help James out and be his incognito date to the wedding.
Danielâs drag-diva skills are put to the test right away, with the brideâs ill-fitting wedding dress, a groom whoâs a danger on the dance floor and more drama than auditions for a gay men's chorus. Faking this relationshipâand ignoring the very real feelings developing between themâmight just be the performance of their lives.
