To commemorate the 20th birthday of that fabulous bus and her fierce crew, CinéWilde proudly presents a 35mm screening of “The Adventures of Priscilla Queen of the Desert” on August 29th, 2014.
This camp-tastic and clever film contains some truly iconic queer cinema moments not to mention jaw-dropping performances by Hugo Weaving before he ever uttered, “Mr. Anderson...” in The Matrix; Guy Pierce before he exclaimed over and over “I have no short term memory,” in Momento; and years after Terrance Stamp bellowed “Kneel before Zodd!” in Superman II!
Penned and directed by the recently out Stephen Elliot, "Priscilla" won an Oscar for Best Costumes and rightfully so. It's a visual feast that surprises and delights.
CinéWilde's pre-show discussion feature's local Dallas Award winning Costume Designer Michael Robinson. Michael is a staple in costume shops at most Dallas Theatre's and especially at his own. He runs Dallas Costume Shoppe (www.dcshoppe.com). Join us as we chat all things fringe and fabulous!
Our after-party will feature an amateur night of drag queens and kings with a few sprinkles of veteran performers to spice and sparkle up the night.
If you always dreamed about pulling the wig down from the shelf and putting on some make up, you’ll want to be at the Texas Theatre Friday August 29th!
Bring a CD containing your one song (no more than 3 mins) and sissy that walk! And bring those one's! These queens and kings will be working hard so MAKE IT RAIN!
