The Wedding Date meets The Birdcage in this laugh-out-loud gay romantic comedy from Andrew Grey
Hes here to slay
but 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 friendsand hes two thousand miles away from his familys expectations. He also has a problem: he needs a date for his sisters wedding in Missoula, Montana, but his family has no idea that hes gay, and hed 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 danceand 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.
Daniels drag-diva skills are put to the test right away, with the brides ill-fitting wedding dress, a groom whos a danger on the dance floor and more drama than auditions for a gay men's chorus. Faking this relationshipand ignoring the very real feelings developing between themmight just be the performance of their lives.
