For this special edition of SHOUT Movie Night, please join the Sidewalk Film Festival programmers for an exclusive Sneak Peek of what's coming up for the SHOUT LGBTQ+ line-up at the 28th Annual Sidewalk Film Festival! Come early for Happy Hour at the bar starting at 5:00pm, Sneak Peek at 7:00pm, and To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar! at 7:30 PM. Film Synopsis: Manhattan drag queens Vida Boheme and Noxeema Jackson impress regional judges in competition, securing berths in the Nationals in Los Angeles. When the two meet pathetic drag novice Chi-Chi Rodriguez — one of the losers that evening — the charmed Vida and Noxeema agree to take the hopeless youngster under their joined wing. Soon the three set off on a madcap road trip across America and struggle to make it to Los Angeles in time.
