LADIES AND

GENTLEMEN, WE'RE BEGINNING OUR

FINAL DESCENT INTO BRANSON,

MISSOURI.

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR SEAT-BACKS

AND TRAY TABLES ARE IN THEIR

FULL UPRIGHT AND LOCKED

POSITION.

OH, BOY.

I GUESS

TSA WENT THROUGH OUR SHIT

AND THINGS.



OH, BUT THAT IS NOT YOUR SHOE.

THAT'S MY SHOE.

THIS IS

MOVING TOO...

MY SHOE.

COME ON, BOB.

I'M THE

ONE WITH THESE LAZY BITCHES.

IT'S FINE WHEN I TRAVEL WITH

THE LAZY MOTHERFUCKERS.

IS THERE A CONCIERGE?

HEY, BRANSON, HEY.

WE ARE IN BRANSON, MISSOURI.

THAT'S RIGHT, HONEY,

THE WHOLESOME CHRISTIAN

LAS VEGAS OF THE MIDWEST.

YOU'RE A GUY.

WHAT'S YOUR NAME, BABY?

WHO, ME?

YEAH.

MAYBE

YOU'RE A GUY?

MAYBE WE'RE ALL GUYS.

YOU CAUGHT HIM.

YOU CAUGHT HIM.

OH, NO, I'M NOT A GUY.

YOU'RE A GIRL.

THANK YOU VERY

MUCH, BUT NO.

YOU'RE NOT EITHER?

NO, NO, NO, NO.

THIS IS A COSTUME.

OBVIOUSLY

A WOMAN.

NOW I'M CLEARLY A WOMAN.

THIS

JUST LIKE, RANDOM AREA IN

THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE, WHERE YOU

HAVE ALL OF THESE ATTRACTIONS.

CHRISTIAN BANDS AND CHRISTIAN

CHORUS LINES, WHOLESOME FAMILY

FRIENDLY SHOWS.

HELLO, HOW ARE YOU ALL DOING?

HELLO, HI.

HELLO.

OH, SO WE'RE

DOING A DRAG SHOW AND WE'VE

ACTUALLY GOTTEN SOME LOCALS HERE

TO DO THE DRAG SHOW WITH US.

AND WE NEED YOU ALL TO COME AND

SUPPORT.

I THINK IT'D BE GREAT THOUGH.

HI.

HE'S LIKE, "WHAT IN THE WORLD?"

WE LOOK

ALMOST LIKE A --

BOB, YOU MAKE

TOO MUCH MONEY TO SIT UP HERE

AND HAVE SOCKS IN YOUR CHEST.

SOCKS

ARE THE BEST TITTIES.

I SAID IT.

HELLO, SIR, HOW ARE YOU?

YOU GUYS HAVE TO MOVE

FROM THE PREMISES.

THE COPS HAVE BEEN CALLED.

OH, WORK.

ALL RIGHT, WE'RE ABOUT TO MOVE.

WAIT, THEY

CALLED THE POLICE?

ON WHO?

YOU GUYS HAVE TO MOVE

FROM THE PREMISES.

GROWING UP, IT WASN'T

TILL LATER THAT I REALIZED THAT

BRANSON WAS, LIKE,

A ONE-OF-A-KIND THING.

YOU KNOW, THAT'S THE SHOWS.

MY EARLIEST MEMORIES OF LIKE,

GETTING INTO MUSICAL THEATER

WAS ACTUALLY MY MOTHER.

SHE WOULD LISTEN TO THE CAST

RECORDING OF "WICKED" AND I FELL

IN LOVE WITH THAT STINKING SHOW.

AND EVER SINCE THEN I'VE BEEN

TRYING TO PURSUE THAT.

I STRUGGLED WITH SAME SEX

ATTRACTION THROUGHOUT

MY ENTIRE LIFE.

SO I CAME OUT MY JUNIOR OF HIGH

SCHOOL AND MY FAMILY WAS VERY

SUPPORTIVE AND I HAD A VERY EASY

COMING OUT.

BUT NOW I ULTIMATELY IDENTIFY

AS A CHRISTIAN, I DON'T IDENTIFY

AS QUEER.

TO SOMEONE LIKE MY MOTHER WHO

ISN'T NECESSARILY WHAT YOU WOULD

CALL A BELIEVER, IT'S REALLY

HARD FOR HER.

I KNOW THAT SHE DOESN'T

UNDERSTAND THAT YOU KNOW,

THIS IS WHAT GOD'S WORD SAYS.

BUT I KNOW GOD'S GOT IT.

OH, MY GOSH, IT'S SUCH AN HONOR.

OH, IT'S

NICE TO MEET YOU.

YOU DID A REALLY GOOD JOB.

THANK YOU.

OH, MY GOSH.

HOW LONG

HAVE YOU BEEN BACK IN BRANSON?

ABOUT, PROBABLY ABOUT

A YEAR AND A HALF NOW.

LIKE, WHEN I LIVED UP IN

SPRINGFIELD, I WAS LIVING THIS

EXTREMELY LIKE, ALL OVER THE

PLACE LIFE.

I WAS PART OF THE HOMOSEXUAL

COMMUNITY AND MY DRUG HABITS

AND MY ALCOHOL HABITS WERE

REALLY GETTING OUT OF CONTROL,

TO THE POINT THAT IT WAS

DESTROYING MY LIFE.

IT FINALLY CLICKED ONE DAY THAT

IT WAS REALLY HURTING PEOPLE,

SO I DECIDED LIKE, TO QUIT COLD

TURKEY AND I PRAYED FOR THE

FIRST TIME IN SO LONG.

AND I JUST FELT THIS KIND OF

EASE OFF ME AND I FELT LIKE,

OKAY, EVERYTHING'S GONNA BE

OKAY.

EVERYTHING'S GONNA BE GOOD.

THEN I HAD TO COME TO CALMS WITH

BEING GAY AND FOLLOWING CHRIST

AND I ULTIMATELY, I HAD TO GO

THE BIBLE ROUTE.

WHEN YOU

WERE IN SPRINGFIELD, DID YOU

IDENTIFY AS A QUEER?

YES.

BUT YOU

DON'T ANYMORE?

NO.

AND HOW'S

THAT BEEN?

IS THAT LIKE A DAILY STRUGGLE?

IT'S SOMETHING I

STRUGGLE WITH ON A DAILY BASIS

AND TO BE BLUNT, IT'S SOMETIMES

I QUESTION LIKE, WHY IS IT A SIN

FOR A GUY TO BE WITH A GUY?

IT BOGGLES ME AT TIMES BUT IN

THE SAME REGARD, YOU KNOW,

THAT'S WHAT FAITH IS ABOUT,

YOU KNOW.

IT ALL GOES BACK TO MY JOB IS TO

SPEAK THE TRUTH, SPEAK WHAT, YOU

KNOW, GOD HAS SHOWN ME TO BE THE

TRUTH AND THEN LOVE.

DO YOU

TALK TO YOUR MOM ABOUT THIS LOT?

IT'S VERY SPARINGLY

THAT WE DO AND IT'S ONE OF THOSE

THINGS THAT I'VE JUST LEARNED

THAT YOU KNOW, NOT EVERYONE'S

GONNA UNDERSTAND, YOU KNOW.

I WENT

THE RELIGIOUS PHASE OF MY LIFE

AND I DID FEEL LIKE THERE WAS

JUST SOMETHING WRONG WITH ME.

SO I OFTEN HAVE VISCERAL

RESPONSES TO CHRISTIANITY.

BUT THEN I CAN ALSO LOOK BACK

AT HOW IT HAS HELPED A LOT OF

PEOPLE IN MY LIFE, IN MY FAMILY.

AND IF THIS IS WHAT HE NEEDS TO

GET TO A POSITIVE SPACE, A SPACE

WHERE HE CAN LIVE WITH HIMSELF

AND BE HAPPY WITH HIMSELF,

THEN HE HAS TO DO IT.

I'M JUST TRYING TO CONSIDER

HIS POINT OF VIEW.

I'M EXCITED ABOUT DOING THIS

PERFORMANCE WITH YOU

AND YOUR MOM.

I HAVE A COUPLE OF IDEAS THAT

I'VE BEEN LIKE, WHISHING AROUND

IN MY HEAD.

I ALSO WANT TO PRESENT THEM TO

YOU AND YOUR MOM TOMORROW, SO WE

CAN LIKE, SIT DOWN AND LIKE,

REALLY LIKE, CREATE THIS NUMBER

TOGETHER.

MAKE IT SOMETHING THAT YOU ARE

BOTH, NOT ONLY EXCITED TO BE A

PART OF, BUT THAT YOU CAN LOOK

BACK WHEN IT'S ALL SAID AND DONE

AND GO, "THAT WAS FUN, AND IT

WAS REPRESENTATIVE OF WHO I AM."

YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

MM-HM.

I'M DOWN.

THIS IS

SO EXCITING.

I KNOW, IT'S STILL

LIKE, SETTING IN THAT I'M LIKE,

SITTING WITH YOU AT --

CRAZY.

ME OF ALL PEOPLE, IF YOU CAN

EVEN BELIEVE IT.

OKAY, ALL RIGHT.

AH, HELLO?

HOW ARE YOU?

I'M SORRY TO INTERRUPT YOUR

REHEARSAL, YOU KNOW, I HATE TO

INTERRUPT THE MAGIC.

I SAW YOU WERE DOING LITTLE

NUMBERS HERE AND I GOT EXCITED

IN THE DOORWAY, BITCH,

I WAS LIKE...

ARE YOU A BALLET DANCER?

THAT'S WHAT I WENT

TO COLLEGE FOR, YEAH.

KIND OF WENT A LITTLE BIT MORE

MUSICAL THEATER AND JAZZ

AND STUFF LIKE THAT.

BUT...

OH, VERY COOL.

YOU KNOW, I SEE DANCE,

I GET EXCITED BY IT.

YES.

NOW HERE'S THE MOST

IMPORTANT QUESTION.

OKAY.

WHAT DO YOU KNOW

ABOUT DRAG?

I KNOW A LITTLE BIT

ABOUT DRAG.

OH, GIVE ME

WHAT YOU KNOW.

OH, HERE WE GO.

GOT A PROFESSIONAL, Y'ALL.

Y'ALL, WE GOT A PROFESSIONAL.

I THINK EVERYONE HAS

A LITTLE BIT OF A QUEEN IN THEM.

HALLELUJAH.

RIGHT, SO I LOVE

MAKEUP, YOU KNOW, I LOVE FLASHY

THINGS.

SO DRAG KIND OF IS A NATURAL

THING FOR ME.

I LOVE PERFORMING.

I'M A DANCER.

IT'S WHAT I DO.

WHAT'S THE QUEER

COMMUNITY LIKE HERE?

IS THERE A QUEER COMMUNITY?

YEAH, THERE IS, IT'S

DEFINITELY LIKE BUBBLING UNDER

THE SURFACE, JUST BEING, YOU

KNOW, HAVING SO MANY SHOWS IN

TOWN, YOU'RE OBVIOUSLY GOING TO

HAVE A QUEER PRESENCE.

WE ARE HERE, I JUST DON'T KNOW

THAT WE HAVE A COMPLETELY OPEN

SPACE YET.

YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

WHY?

WE'RE RIGHT IN THE

CENTER OF THE BIBLE BELT,

FIRST OF ALL.

YOU KNOW.

I'M A CHRISTIAN, BUT CERTAIN

CHRISTIANS JUST THINK THAT IT'S

WRONG.

I LIVE WITH MY PARTNER, BRENT,

WE'VE BEEN TOGETHER 11 YEARS.

BRANSON PEOPLE, THEY SHOW THAT

THEY'RE NOT FULLY ACCEPTING OF

IT IN THEIR BODY LANGUAGE, OR

YOU KNOW, THEIR GLANCES

OVER AT US.

CERTAIN THEATERS IN TOWN WILL

NOT HIRE GAY PEOPLE, IF THEY

FIND OUT YOU'RE GAY, I THINK YOU

WOULD BE LET GO.

WOW.

YEAH, THEY JUST,

THERE ARE RELIGIOUS SHOWS THAT

HAVE CERTAIN CORE BELIEFS AND IF

YOU DON'T FOLLOW YOUR BELIEFS,

THEN YOU'RE NOT A PART

OF THEIR CAST.

WOW.

SO I THINK THAT

PROBABLY A LOT OF THOSE CAST

MEMBERS ARE HIDING.

HERE'S WHAT I WANT

FOR THOSE

WHO ARE HERE IN THIS COMMUNITY,

YOU HAD TO STEP EVEN MORE

FORWARD, FARTHER THAN WHERE YOU

ARE RIGHT NOW EVEN AND THAT WILL

INSPIRE THE PEOPLE 'CAUSE THEY

KNOW YOU OWN SO MUCH OF WHO YOU

ARE ALREADY, BUT WHO ALSO YOU

CAN BE.

SURE.

SO ARE WE GONNA DO

A SHOW TOGETHER.

YEAH.

AND WE'LL HAVE SOME

FUN WITH IT.

COOL.

AND MAYBE THERE IS

A HUGE AMOUNT OF SUPPORT THAT

PEOPLE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW IN THIS

COMMUNITY AND EVEN IF THERE

AIN'T NOBODY, AT LEAST THERE'LL

BE THE TWO OF US.

RIGHT,

WE'LL HAVE FUN.

EXACTLY.

IT'S HARD TO HAVE TO SUPPRESS

WHO YOU ARE TO DO YOUR JOB.

THAT'S NOT FAIR.

IT'S NOT RIGHT, WHICH IS WHY I

THINK IT'S SO IMPORTANT TO HAVE

SOMEONE RIGHT IN THEIR COMMUNITY

WHO IS LIKE, "LOOK, HERE I AM,

I'M GAY.

I'M PROUD.

I'M LIVING MY BEST LIFE.

AND YOU CAN TOO."

SPEAKING OF PERFORMING, LET'S GO

AND GET US FIVE, SIX, SEVEN,

EIGHT, TOGETHER BEFORE I HAVE TO

HIT IT.

OH.

DON'T POP A SEAM,

GIRL.

GIRL, GOOD LUCK,

THIS SHAPE GETS TIED UP IN THE

JEANS GIRL, LOOK AT THAT, GIRL.

I LOOK LIKE A KARDASHIAN IN THIS

MIRROR, BITCH.

YES, GIRL,

ARE YOU PADDED?

OOH.

BITCH I'M FEELING THINGS I AIN'T

FELT SINCE '86.

YOU PROBABLY FEEL.

WELL, HOW FAR DOWN

ARE YOU GOING?

I MEAN, YOU CAN GO

LIKE, ALL THE WAY DOWN IF YOU

WANT.

WELL, YOU CAN.

IF I GO DOWN, GIRL, THEN YOU

KNOW, I DO THE DEATH DROP.

OH YES.

TWO MINUTES LIKE

THIS, GOD, THAT I CAN DO.

OOH THAT'S LOVELY.

YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO

TEACH ME THAT.

AS A CHILD, MY MODEL

AS A CHILD, MY MODEL

FOR MASCULINITY WAS MY GRANDPA.

THAT WAS REALLY IT.

THAT WAS THE ONLY MALE MODEL

I REALLY HAD.

HE TAUGHT ME YOU HAVE TO BOTTLE

UP YOUR EMOTIONS.

THAT IT WASN'T OKAY TO CRY.

IT FELT LIKE I WAS GOING THROUGH

THE MOTIONS OF LIFE AND NOT

KNOWING HOW TO PROCESS ANYTHING.

OUR DAUGHTER'S REALLY SICK.

SHE IS GOING TO HAVE A HARD TIME

FOR HER WHOLE LIFE.

AND THERE WAS A LOT OF TIMES

WHERE I WASN'T THERE FOR HER,

WHEN I SHOULD HAVE BEEN.

AND THAT MESSED THINGS UP.

SO YOU GET YOUR

RIGHT HAND AND YOU GO UP.

MM-HM.

THAT'S NOT WHO I WANTED TO BE.

OH, HI, KITTY.

OH, KITTY.

HI, HI, HOW ARE YOU?

HI.

I AM EUREKA.

I FOUND THIS ON YOUR PORCH,

Y'ALL.

OH, MY GOD, YOU HAVE TWO.

SORRY.

HI.

HI, HUGS.

I'M SARAH.

WHAT'S YOUR

NAME?

THIS IS DECEMBER.

DECEMBER,

HOW ARE YOU?

HI.

HI.

SO WHAT ARE

YOU COOKING?

SPAGHETTI.

OH MY

GOODNESS, THIS LOOKS GOOD.

LET THE MAN COOK.

I LOVE IT.

HE COOKS SO MUCH

BETTER THAN I DO.

ALL I LIKE TO

DO IS EAT, I'M NOT A COOK

EITHER.

RIGHT.

LIKE ME AND DECEMBER WILL TURN

ON MUSIC AND LIKE, HAVE A DANCE

PARTY WHILE HE'S COOKING.

SO HOW OLD

IS SHE?

SHE IS EIGHT

YEARS OLD.

EIGHT YEARS

OLD, WOW.

DOES SHE KNOW WHAT DRAG IS?

YES, OH YES, SHE DOES.

SHE DOES.

OH YEAH.

YES.

YOU'LL BE MY

DRAG DAUGHTER, OBVIOUSLY.

SO I HOPE

YOU'RE READY, I'M THE BEST AT

WHAT I DO.

ARE YOU EXCITED OR NERVOUS?

YES, I'M EXCITED.

EXCITED?

YES.

HAVE YOU EVER

THOUGHT ABOUT BEING IN DRAG

BEFORE?

CHRIS'S FIRST DRAG

SHOW WAS...

WHEN WAS THAT?

SEPTEMBER?

SEPTEMBER, YES.

WE WERE ALL SUPER

PROUD OF HIM BECAUSE OF LIKE,

HOW HE'S BEEN LIKE, REALLY IN A

SHELL ABOUT A LOT OF THINGS.

AND THAT NIGHT THAT WE WERE ALL

OUT THERE, HE WAS SITTING RIGHT

UP FRONT WITH ALL OF US.

AND IT WAS REALLY, YEAH, IT WAS

REALLY COOL TO WATCH HIM KIND OF

GET OUT OF HIS SHELL FOR THAT.

YEAH,

ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU'RE RAISED

A CERTAIN WAY, I GUESS, HUH?

YEAH, THAT WAS MY

BIGGEST THING IS, I USED TO

SWEEP EVERYTHING UNDER THE RUG.

LIKE, I WENT YEARS WITH,

I'LL GO OVER HERE.

I WENT YEARS JUST NOT KNOWING

THAT I HAD DEPRESSION, ANXIETY,

ALL THAT STUFF.

THAT WAS SOMETHING I NEVER KNEW

HOW TO PROCESS.

AND I JUST MADE THE DECISION ONE

DAY, I WAS AT WORK AND I WAS

LIKE, I'M GONNA KILL MYSELF.

AND I CAME HOME AND LIKE, PLAYED

IT OFF LIKE, FOR A WEEK AND THEN

I FINALLY TOLD HER, "HEY, THIS

HAPPENED A WEEK AGO," AND SHE

WAS LIKE, "WE'RE GONNA GET YOU

HELP."

I MEAN, WE'VE BEEN

TOGETHER FOR 11 YEARS.

YEAH.

AND SO SOMEWHERE ALONG

THE WAY, HE QUIT TALKING AND I

QUIT TALKING.

AND WE WERE BOTH EXPRESSING

LIKE, HOW WE WERE FEELING.

SO WE GOT HIM INTO A COUNSELOR

TO JUST AND GET HIM TO A POINT

WHERE HE CAN TALK ABOUT HOW HE

FEELS AND STUFF.

YEAH.

UNFORTUNATELY, IT TOOK

TOO LONG FOR US TO COMMUNICATE

THE RIGHT WAY.

YEAH.

I MEAN, IT'S KIND OF

WELL, WHAT IT IS WE'RE IN THE

MIDDLE OF A DIVORCE, I DON'T

KNOW, WE'RE KIND OF FIGURING OUT

HOW TO BE FRIENDS AGAIN.

YEAH.

THAT'S AMAZING.

AND WE'RE ABLE TO

LIKE, HAVE DINNER TOGETHER AND

STUFF AND BE WHO WE NEED TO BE

FOR HER AND...

YEAH, I CAN

SEE IT, I KNOW.

THAT'S BEAUTIFUL.

WHEN I WENT TO MY

FIRST EVER DRAG SHOW, I JUST

EXPERIENCED ALL THE GOOD

POSITIVE ENERGY AND THEY WERE

JUST SO NICE AND COOL.

AND I LOVED IT.

'CAUSE THAT'S A WAY TO EXPRESS

YOURSELF.

I'M GONNA BE

IN DRAG LATER THIS WEEK WITH

YOUR DAD.

HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THAT?

I DON'T KNOW WHAT

HE'S GONNA LOOK LIKE THIS WAY.

OH HONEY,

TRUST, I'M GONNA MAKE SURE HE'S

BEAUTIFUL.

I THINK THAT THIS WILL

HELP ME COMMUNICATE WITH MY

DAUGHTER THE RIGHT WAY I SHOULD.

BECAUSE SHOWING MY EMOTION IS,

THAT'S HOW I'M GONNA CONNECT

WITH HER.

SO I ACTUALLY

NEED YOUR HELP, BECAUSE WE'VE

GOT TO FIGURE OUT A DRAG NAME

FOR YOUR DAD TOO.

WHAT ABOUT MIRANDA?

MIRANDA?

YOU'VE GOT TO ASK DADDY.

YEAH.

I LIKE MIRANDA.

SO WE LIKE

MIRANDA SO FAR?

JUST MIRANDA?

MIRANDA JOLES.

MIRANDA JOLES,

WHERE DOES JOLES COME FROM?

GRANDMA?

THAT'S GRANDMA'S MAIDEN NAME,

LOVE IT.

HI, MIRANDA

JOLES, NICE TO MEET YOU, BABY.

YAY, OH SO

YOU'RE GONNA BE THE STYLIST?

MM-HM,

STYLIST, HEY.

YOU'RE GONNA

BE THE STYLIST, YOU'RE GONNA BE

THE PRODUCER.

YES.

SO I NEED YOU

TO SAY, "I AM THE PRODUCER."

I AM THE PRODUCER.

YEAH YOU ARE.

GIVE ME

A POUND, BOOM.

I LIKE TO DO THIS.

WHAT?

BA-LA-LA.

OKAY, ONE MORE

TIME.

BA-LA-LA.

OH, MAMA.

ALL ABOUT IT.

I LOVE THAT.

WE'VE GOT OUR WARDROBE, STYLIST,

TO THE NINES, HONEY.

AND ME AND DECEMBER ARE GONNA

MAKE SURE, AREN'T WE?

YEAH.

SO YOU GOT TO

GIVE ME THE PUNCHY.

BA-LA-LA-LA.

YEAH!

I THINK CHRIS WANTED TO BE AN

EMOTIONAL PERSON, I THINK HE

WANTED TO CARE ABOUT HIS

DAUGHTER AND THE WAY I'M GONNA

PLAY MY PART IN THIS IS, I'M

JUST GONNA MAKE HIM HAVE FUN,

I'M GONNA FORCE HIM TO OPEN UP.

COME ON, GIVE US A LITTLE BIT

EXTRA.

AH.

MIRANDA JOLES

IN THE HOUSE, MOM.

TO ME, THAT'S WHAT WE'RE DOING

WITH THIS PERFORMANCE, IT'S TIME

TO GET YOUR ASS UP AND SHOW THAT

BABY AND SHOW THAT WIFE WHO THE

FUCK YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU'RE

MADE OF.

SO GUESS WHO'S HE GONNA BE?

FIERCE, ICONIC, SICKENING,

AND PROUD OF HIMSELF.

OKAY.

COME ON, MY DUTTONS.

OH MY GOD Y'ALL, THIS STAGE IS

SO MUCH BIGGER THAN IT LOOKS,

LOOK HOW TALL THIS IS.

OH MOMMA, THIS IS NICE.

I FEEL IT,

BUT HERE'S A QUESTION, JED.

YES SIR.

WE'RE DOING A DRAG

SHOW, HAVE YOU EVER HAD A DRAG

SHOW IN THIS VENUE BEFORE?

NOT AT ALL.

HAVE YOU EVER HAD

PEOPLE RUNNING UP TO THE STAGE

TO TIP WITH DOLLAR BILLS,

FIVES AND 20s?

NO.

THANK YOU, BABY.

THANK YOU, BABY.

HAVE YOU EVER HAD DRAG QUEENS

ROLLING THROUGH AND TRYING TO

GET ACROSS TO THE MONEY BY THE

PEOPLE OVER HERE, AND DOING A

TWERK SESSION ON THE FRONT ROW?

NO.

SO WOULD YOU BE

OPEN TO THAT THOUGH?

WHAT WE DO HERE IN THIS

THEATER IS CLEAN, WHOLESOME

ENTERTAINMENT.

WE PUT ON A

FAMILY FRIENDLY SHOW, BELIEVE IT

OR NOT.

SOMETIMES.

IT'S NOT

ALWAYS TWERK SHOWS, SOMETIMES IT

IS, I MEAN, LIKE EVERYONE SAYS

WE OFFEND PEOPLE AND I WOULD

SAY, "YOU KNOW, WE HAVE FAMILIES

TOO, SO WE UNDERSTAND FAMILIES."

HOWEVER, WE MIGHT

BE IN A TWO-PIECE CROP TOP,

FRENCH WITH THE CHEEKS OUT.

THAT'S POSSIBLE.

YOU NEED TO SPEAK TO

MRS. DUTTON.

YES SIR.

NOT THIS

PLACE.

OH.

NOT THIS

PLACE.

"THE SILENT MAJORITY

STANDS WITH TRUMP."

WHAT?

"MISUNDERSTOOD BY SOME, LOVED BY

MILLIONS, A SYMBOL OF COURAGE,

HONOR AND VALOR."

YEAH, I DON'T THINK

THEY'VE CREATED A SAFE SPACE.

I DON'T THINK

THEY WANT TO SEE US, GIRL.

THIS IS WHAT I WAS

TELLING YOU, NOW THIS PLACE,

THEY DO CONCERTS IN HERE.

SO IT'S LIKE A THEATER LIFESTYLE

PLACE, SO IT'S GONNA HAVE A

STAGE FOR SURE.

YEAH,

IT'S A THEATER.

AND IT'S GONNA HAVE

LIKE PROBABLY --

SOMEBODY NEEDS TO TALK TO

SOMEBODY DOWN HERE.

YES, MA'AM, HI.

HI.

YOU WERE HERE BEFORE.

HELLO?

HOW MAY I HELP YOU?

THIS IS A THEATER

THOUGH, YES MA'AM?

OH WE WERE

JUST COMING TO LOOK AT THE

THEATER AND SCOPE IT OUT FOR A

LOCATION TO POTENTIALLY PERFORM

IN.

YEAH, WE'RE LOOKING

TO DO LIKE, A DRAG SHOW TYPE

EVENT HERE.

I DON'T THINK

SHE WANTS TO CONVERSE.

WE'RE JUST

VISITING, WE JUST GOT TO TOWN.

I WASN'T HERE -- OKAY.

SORRY.

THEY WANT US

TO EVACUATE THE PREMISES, LIKE,

WHAT DO YOU MEAN, CALL THE LAW?

WELL,

LET'S GIVE THIS NICE LADY HER

PHONE BACK.

OKAY.

ALL RIGHT,

BYE-BYE.

THANK YOU SO MUCH,

MA'AM.

WHAT IN THE --

GOD BLESS.

WHAT IN THE

WORLD.

GETTING THE LAW.

I'M NOT CHRISTIAN.

I'M NOT.

I CAN'T STAND HERE IN FRONT OF

YOU AND SAY THAT I BELIEVE AND I

HAVE FAITH AND I DON'T.

BUT I RAISED MY CHILDREN AND

BRANSON, WHICH IS VERY

CHRISTIAN-BASED.

I WOULD SAY THAT 80 TO 90% OF

THE RESIDENTS IN BRANSON ARE

CHRISTIAN.

THAT IS WHAT YOU HEAR, THAT IS

WHAT YOU SEE.

THERE IS NOTHING IN BRANSON THAT

SAYS, "BE GAY."

BUT TWO OUT OF MY THREE CHILDREN

ARE GAY.

MY MIDDLE SON DONOVAN, STRUGGLED

INTERNALLY ALL HIS LIFE BEFORE

HE WAS COMFORTABLE ENOUGH TO BE

LIKE, "THIS IS ME."

AND NOW TANNER IS STRUGGLING.

WHEN I CAME OUT AS A

CHRISTIAN AND NOT GAY ANYMORE,

WITH MY MOM, IT WAS KIND OF A

TAILSPIN FOR HER.

AND I'M SO SCARED TO

TALK TO HIM ABOUT IT, BECAUSE

LIKE, THIS IS HIS LIFE.

I GUESS IT HURTS

BECAUSE IT DOES CREATE THIS

DISTANCE.

I JUST WANT HIM TO

BE HAPPY.

WELCOME

TO CAMP, CAMP.

OH.

OH MY.

HEY,

THIS IS MY SPACE.

YAY.

ARE YOU

EXCITED, ARE YOU NERVOUS?

I'M SO EXCITED.

ARE YOU

JAZZY, ARE YOU?

I'M A LITTLE BIT OF

BOTH, I THINK.

YOU KNOW, JUST BECAUSE WE REALLY

DON'T KNOW KIND OF LIKE, WHAT'S

GOING ON AND WHAT YOUR VISION

IS.

SO I'M EXCITED ABOUT THAT.

SO WHAT

I'M THINKING ABOUT IS, BOTH OF

YOU APPEARANCE AT THE SHOW.

I WAS THINKING TO MYSELF LIKE,

HOW CAN I INCORPORATE Y'ALL'S

NARRATIVE, Y'ALL'S STORY INTO

THE BIGGER PICTURE, INTO A STORY

THAT WE CAN TELL ON STAGE.

AND MORE THAN ANYTHING, I REALLY

WANT THIS TO SPEAK TO YOU.

CAN I ASK YOU, WHAT DO YOU WANT

TANNER TO TAKE FROM THIS?

IT'S SUCH A HARD

QUESTION, BECAUSE I HAVE SO MANY

DIFFERENT THINGS.

LIKE, I KNOW THAT YOU STILL DEAL

WITH YOUR SAID DEMON OF BEING

ATTRACTED TO MEN, STILL.

AND I KNOW THAT YOU HAVE TOLD ME

THAT YOU'RE WILLING TO SACRIFICE

YOUR TIME ON THIS EARTH,

YOUR LIFE HERE.

AND BECAUSE I DON'T BELIEVE

THE WAY YOU DO, IT'S VERY HARD

FOR ME TO STOMACH YOU LIVING

LIFE WITHOUT LOVE.

AND I JUST WANT YOU TO BE HAPPY

WITH WHO YOU ARE, WHETHER YOU'RE

GAY OR STRAIGHT OR WHATEVER.

I JUST WANT YOU TO HAVE LOVE IN

YOUR LIFE, BECAUSE I KNOW THAT I

CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT IT.

HERE.

THAT'S THE THING,

I DO HAVE LOVE IN MY LIFE.

I HAVE YOU.

I HAVE GOD.

YOU KNOW, LOVE ISN'T JUST ME

BEING ABLE TO COME HOME TO

SOMEONE AND SAY, "THIS IS MY

PARTNER, THIS IS THE PERSON WHO

I'M LIVING WITH FOR THE REST OF

MY LIFE."

LOVE IS SO MUCH MORE DEEPER THAN

THAT.

AND I KNOW HOW, FROM AN OUTSIDE

PERSPECTIVE IT COULD SEEM THAT

I'M HURTING.

BUT YOU KNOW, THAT'S JUST EVERY

DAY LIFE, YOU KNOW, THERE'S

NEVER GONNA BE A POINT IN THIS

LIFE THAT WE'RE NOT GONNA BE

DEALING WITH SOME SORT OF

HARDSHIP.

AND I NEVER WOULD ONCE CONDEMN

YOU OR JUDGE YOU BECAUSE YOU

DON'T UNDERSTAND WHERE I'M AT.

UNDERSTANDING THAT, YOU KNOW,

YOUR BRAIN IS DIFFERENT THAN

MINE, YOUR EXPERIENCES ARE

DIFFERENT THAN MINE.

BUT MY JOB IS TO LOVE YOU,

REGARDLESS OF IT.

IT'S FINE.

I'M OKAY.

OKAY.

I PROMISE.

OKAY.

I LOVE YOU.

YOU GOT TO

START GETTING UNDRESSED, GIRL.

BE BODY POSITIVE, DON'T BE SHY.

SO TUCK, RIGHT?

YOU HAVE

UNDERWEAR, RIGHT?

YEAH.

ALL RIGHT, I'M GONNA TRY, BUT...

WHAT'S

HAPPENING?

SO I HAD A VASECTOMY.

OKAY.

LIKE, I WENT INTO THE

DOCTOR'S OFFICE, HE WENT TO PULL

DOWN MY PANTS.

YOU KNOW, THEY EXAMINE THEM,

CHECK 'EM OUT.

AND HE LOOKED AT ME AND HE SAID,

"THOSE ARE THE BIGGEST SET OF

BALLS I'VE EVER SEEN IN MY

LIFE."

WHAT?

AND WE'RE GONNA HAVE

TO DO THIS IN AN OPERATING ROOM.

THEY CANNOT

POSSIBLY BE THAT BIG.

YEP, THEY ARE.

WELL, THEN I

NEED YOU TO JUST PUT THIS ON

AND JUST PUSH EVERYTHING BACK

AND TRY TO PULL IT WITH THIS,

FOR THE BIG GIRLS.

ALL RIGHT.

DO YOU NEED ME

TO HELP YOU PULL 'EM OUT?

YEAH.

OKAY,

I'M COMING.

OH, MY GOD!

LOOK AT THESE BALLS!

I'M JUST KIDDING.

WE HAVE SOME COLOR OPTIONS.

I LIKE A COOLER

BLOND, THIS IS --

WELL, I'LL DO IT YOUR WAY,

BECAUSE THESE ARE HIS OPTIONS.

OH, OH.

LOOK AT HIM DRESS,

YOU GOT RIGHT INTO 'EM,

DIDN'T YOU?

LOOK, NOW DON'T BREAK AN ANKLE

'CAUSE YOU KNOW, YOU GOT TO

NEXT SEASON.

OH, NEVER MIND.

ALL RIGHT, NOT TOO MUCH NOW.

OH, EEH.

YES.

YOU

ARE MID-AMERICA'S NIGHTMARE.

YEAH.

I'M ALL FOR BEING

LIKE, ALL OVER THE TOP BUT

WITHOUT BEATING AROUND THE BUSH,

I DON'T WANT TO BE LIKE,

PRESENT THE WOMAN ASPECT.

WHATEVER YOUR LIMIT IS,

WE'RE GONNA STEP THAT UP.

YEAH, UM.

YEAH, REMEMBER

YOUR FEMALE HIP I TOLD YOU

IS ALL THE WAY UP HERE.

SO NOW YOU'VE GOT A FEMALE HIP.

CHRIS IS SUPER INTO

WRESTLING, SO WE'RE GONNA DO

A WRESTLING NUMBER.

BUT WE'RE ABOUT TO SISSY

THE FUCK OUT OF IT.

IT DON'T MATTER HOW STRAIGHT

YOU ARE, MOMMA, YOU'RE GONNA POP

RUBY UP AND YOU'RE GONNA

GIVE SASS.

WOULD THE LINE BE BREASTS?

HIPS?

YEAH.

THIS ALL

RIGHT.

OH, LOOK AT THOSE TITTIES.

I FEEL COMFORTABLE THAT WE

CAN STAY SAFE ENOUGH, I MEAN,

I'M NOT GONNA GO CRAZY,

BUT IT'LL BE A LITTLE CRAZY.

EXCITING.

OKAY, GIVE ME

A LITTLE SASHAY AROUND THIS

TABLE.

SASHAY, SHANTAY, SHANTAY,

SHANTAY, SHANTAY.

ALMOST.

ALL RIGHT, THAT WAS REALLY

TERRIBLE.

YEAH, I KNOW.

YOU WALK LIKE

A CLYDESDALE.

I WANT YOU TO LET GO OF

EVERYTHING YOU'VE BEEN TAUGHT

ABOUT BEING A TENSE MASCULINE

PERSON OR MAN.

I DON'T THINK YOU UNDERSTAND OR

EVEN HAVE MAYBE WRAPPED YOUR

HEART AROUND THE IDEA OF LIKE,

THE PEOPLE YOU'RE GOING TO HELP.

NOT JUST STRAIGHT MEN, BUT ALSO

LGBT MEMBERS BY PUTTING YOURSELF

IN THIS VULNERABLE POSITION AND

BEING ABLE TO LIKE, LOOK PAST

SOCIETY'S LABEL OF WHAT A MAN

IS.

BECAUSE WE'RE CONSTANTLY TOLD

WE'RE NOT ALLOWED TO DO IT.

AND WHEN PEOPLE LIKE YOU TAKE

THAT STEP, IT VALIDATES PEOPLE

THAT AREN'T CHOOSING A SIDE,

YOU KNOW.

IT WAS JUST THIS GEAR,

DAMN IT.

IT'S OKAY.

IT'S OKAY.

HOLD MOMMA'S

HAND.

TALK TO US.

WHEN SARAH AND I FIRST

BROUGHT UP THAT WE WERE GONNA

GET A DIVORCE AND EVERYTHING,

SAM WAS OVER AT HER GRANDMA'S,

I WENT OVER THERE AND IT WAS

JUST THIS YEAR THAT DECEMBER SAW

ME CRY FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER.

SO I THINK IT WAS AT THAT

MOMENT, THAT I REALIZED LIKE,

I HAVE TO SHOW EMOTION FOR MY

DAUGHTER BECAUSE SHE'S EIGHT

YEAR'S OLD AND THAT'S NOT OKAY

FOR HER TO NOT KNOW LIKE, DAD

NEVER CRIES, LIKE, IN MY MIND

THAT DIDN'T FIT WELL WITH ME.

YOU HAVE TO

TEACH HER IT'S OKAY TO HAVE

FEELINGS, YOU KNOW.

AND THAT SHE HAS TO PROCESS

THEM.

YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH A LOT,

YOU KNOW.

AND NOW I THINK YOU'RE EVEN MORE

EMOTIONAL BECAUSE YOU'RE FINALLY

IN TUNE WITH THAT EMOTIONAL

SIDE.

BECAUSE YOU'RE NO LONGER LOOKING

AT THIS LIKE, GENDER ROLE.

AND YOU'VE HELD IT IN FOR SO

LONG, THAT HAS TO COME OUT.

YEAH.

THAT DOESN'T

MAKE YOU ANY LESS OF A MAN,

I'M SO PROUD OF YOU.

YEAH, I'VE PUT MYSELF

LIVING IN FEAR OF NOT WANTING TO

CONNECT WITH HER AND FACE THOSE

SITUATIONS WITH EVERYTHING THAT

SHE'S HAD GOING ON.

LOOK FORWARD

TO THE FUTURE AND KNOW THAT NOW,

MOVING FORWARD, YOU'RE GONNA BE

THE BEST DAD YOU CAN BE, BECAUSE

YOU'RE GOING TO BE THE BEST YOU

YOU CAN BE.

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?

MM-HM.

AND HOWEVER

THE FUCK YOU WANT TO ACT,

YOU CAN.

THAT DOESN'T MAKE YOU A BAD

PERSON OR LESS OF A MAN.

YEAH.

IT MAKES YOU

PERFECTLY YOU, YOU KNOW.

OH THIS IS CUTE.

JUST IN,

LIKE, LOOKING FOR SPACES TO DO

A SHOW HERE, WE'VE HAD A FEW

PLACES THAT WERE LESS THAN

FRIENDLY.

COME ON IN, THIS IS THE

EVENTS ROOM.

OH, WOW.

YEAH, SO WE USE THIS FOR ALL

TYPES OF EVENTS.

OH YES, YES, YES.

WELL, I'M

ACTUALLY JUST REALLY CURIOUS,

HAVE YOU ALL EVER HAD

A DRAG SHOW HERE BEFORE?

NO.

OR ANYTHING

LIKE THAT IN THE TOWN?

NO.

REALLY?

YEAH.

YOU EVER

HAD ANYTHING LIKE ANY THING

CENTERED AROUND THE QUEER

COMMUNITY HERE BEFORE?

IT'S JUST KIND OF, I THINK,

JUST EVOLVING, YOU KNOW,

SO YEAH.

THE CRAZIEST

PART IS, IS WE'VE BEEN TOLD NO

A LOT, SO WE'RE ACTUALLY JUST

REALLY EXCITED THAT...

FEELING A YES.

SO.

WE'VE

LITERALLY BEEN RUN OUT OF

A COUPLE OF PLACES, LITERALLY.

WE'RE ACCOMMODATING,

SO THAT'S NO PROBLEM.

HOLD ON, BEFORE WE

LEAVE, IF YOU DON'T MIND.

WHERE ARE THE DRESSING ROOMS?

DRESSING ROOMS ARE GONNA BE

OUT ON THE PRINCESS.

ON THE

PRINCESS?

IS THAT A BOAT?

YES.

THAT'S OUR YACHT.

OH, ON THE YACHT.

OH.

I'M FEELING VERY GOLDIE HAWN,

"OVERBOARD."

OH YES, NOW THIS IS

MY GIG.

WELL SHANGE,

YOU DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAN STAND

UP IN YOUR HEELS.

THIS IS

SUCH A LOVELY, Y'ALL GOT SOME

NICE STUFF IN BRANSON.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU

VERY MUCH.

YES, YOU DO

HAVE NICE THINGS.

DON'T MIND IF I DO.

OH MY

GOD, I FEEL LIKE A REAL CAPTAIN.

YOU JUST NEED TO GO OUT AND

DRIVE THE BOAT.

OH,

MY GOD.

SHANGELA, LOOK AT THE MAST

THING.

WHERE'S SHE AT?

OH, MY GOODNESS,

I WANT A PICTURE, BOB.

WHERE DID YOU GET A DRINK FROM?

ICE TEA.

LET ME

SMELL THAT, WAFT IT.

SHUT UP, BITCH.

MAKE SURE Y'ALL TAKE A RIDE ON

THE PRINCESS, HONEY, BUILT FOR

A QUEEN.

ALL RIGHT, THURSDAY, WE'LL

SEE YOU THURSDAY, OKAY.

NOW I WANT YOU TO

YOU'RE A DRAG QUEEN.

SO THESE MOVES ARE LIKE A LADY,

YOU'RE GONNA HAVE HIPS AND

TITTIES AND HAIR AND FACE.

THIS IS

A REPRESENTATION OF YOUR LIFE,

YOUR JOURNEY FROM SPRINGFIELD

BACK TO BRANSON.

I WANT A PHYSICAL REPRESENTATION

OF THEN VERSUS NOW.

THE IDEA OF

OVER-EXAGGERATED FEMININITY IS

THAT WE MAKE IT CLASSY AND

BEAUTIFUL.

FEET STARTING TO HURT?

YEAH.

WELCOME TO

DRAG.

JUMP UP.

YEAH.

AND YOUR LEGS

ARE HERE.

SICKENING.

I'M GONNA HIT

YOU LIKE THIS OR SOMETHING, AND

THEN YOU HIT ME BACK AND THEN

I'M GONNA -- NO, NOT, DON'T BE

PUSHING HARD.

MOMMA'S A FIGHTER, HONEY,

STREET FIGHTER.

I WANT

YOU TO HOLD HANDS, THAT'S

IMPORTANT.

BOTH HANDS, BOTH HANDS, RIGHT

INTO EACH OTHER'S EYES.

PEEL OFF.

NOT YET, NOT THERE YET, NOT YET.

THERE WE GO.

I WANT TO TELL

YOU A SECRET.

WHAT?

WE'RE GONNA

MAKE YOU LIKE, YOUR OWN LITTLE

COSTUME AND EVERYTHING.

YOU HAVEN'T TOLD DADDY?

OKAY, GOOD JOB.

LISTEN, DECEMBER IS SO GAGGED

ABOUT DRAG RIGHT NOW THAT SHE

HAS TO BE IN THIS PERFORMANCE

WITH HER DAD.

THIS IS

A REPRESENTATION OF YOU.

SO WHATEVER MAKES TANNER

A SUPERSTAR IS WHAT MAKES YOU

A SUPERSTAR.

ARE YOU GUYS FAMILIAR

WITH "HAMILTON?"

I DIDN'T

JUST TURN GAY YESTERDAY, OF

COURSE I KNOW "HAMILTON."

WELL, YOU KNOW,

ANGELICA.

YEAH,

WORK, WORK.

I LOVE THAT, LIKE --

WORK,

THAT'S IT, BABY.

SUPERSTARS.

THIS IN A SHOW'S

LEG, THIS THING, YOU HAVE A TILT

THINGY?

SOMETIMES.

OKAY, LET'S SEE.

SWAH!

WORKS FOR DRAG.

HOW DARE YOU?

IN JEANS, SHE DID IT,

I CAN'T TAKE IT.

THAT'S SO

AMAZING, I LOVE THAT.

POSE.

SMILE.

AND THEN PUSH FORWARD.

EY!

OKAY.

ARE YOU EXCITED?

I'M EXCITED, YEAH.

I AM.

I AM TOO, I

DON'T KNOW HOW WE'RE GONNA GET

YOUR BIG BALLS TO DISAPPEAR BUT

WE'RE GONNA MAKE IT HAPPEN.

THAT WAS GOOD.

THAT WAS GREAT.

OKAY, GOOD.

THAT WAS GREAT.

AND HOW DO YOU FEEL?

IT FELT DIFFERENT,

MORE EMOTIONAL.

AND WARM.

YEAH.

AND THINK ABOUT

THAT EMOTION.

THAT'S WHAT'S ON SO MANY PEOPLE.

YEAH.

YOU GET TO LIVE IT

OUT, THEY WANT TO DO THAT.

THEY CAN'T.

SOMEBODY'S TELLING THEM IT'S

IMMORAL, IT'S UNETHICAL, IT'S

WRONG, JUST BE WHO THEY ARE.

YOU SEEM LIKE YOU'RE...

WHAT'S GOING ON, WHAT ARE YOU

THINKING?

YEAH, I MEAN IT

JUST, IT BRINGS SO MANY EMOTIONS

OUT LIKE, YOU KNOW, THERE HAS

BEEN TIMES WHERE I FEEL LIKE I

HAVE MORE TO GIVE, YOU WANT TO

BE DEFINITELY SEEN A CERTAIN WAY

AND IT'S UNCOMFORTABLE TO LET

THEM SEE OTHER SIDES OF YOU.

RIGHT.

IT'S SHOCKING TO

HEAR THAT YOU KNOW, THEY WOULD

CALL THE POLICE JUST BECAUSE YOU

GUYS WERE OUTSIDE IN DRAG.

HOW DO YOU THINK WE

SHOULD HAVE RESPONDED?

HOW WOULD YOU HAVE RESPONDED?

I MEAN, I GUESS

I WOULD JUST LEAVE, BUT I MEAN.

WHY?

I WOULDN'T WANT THEM

TO ACCOST ME OR, I'M VERY NON

CONFRONTATIONAL SO I GUESS IN

THE SAME WAY, THEY WON'T

CONFRONT ME AND SAY, "I HAVE

A PROBLEM WITH YOUR LIFESTYLE,"

I WOULDN'T CAUSE THAT

CONFRONTATION HERE.

OKAY, I UNDERSTAND.

YOU KIND OF PUT UP

A WALL OR A MASK OR WHATEVER TO

THE WORLD AND I REALLY NEED TO

STEP OUT, SHOW WHO I AM 100%

OF THE TIME.

WHEN YOU'RE DOING

THIS NUMBER, JUST THINK OF ALL

THAT, THINK OF THE SITUATIONS

THAT ARE HAPPENING AND EVEN IF

IT'S HEAVY, KNOW THAT THERE ARE

DAYS OUT THERE IN LIFE, A LOT OF

TIMES IF WE WEREN'T ABLE TO

CARRY IT, IT WOULDN'T BE GIVEN

TO US.

THAT'S TRUE.

Y'ALL WANT TO

COME OVER HERE.

JUST CHECKING IN WITH YOU.

I'M FEELING REALLY

I KNOW FROM OUTSIDE PERSPECTIVES

THAT IT'S CRAZY, IT'S INSANE

LIKE, WHERE I'M AT AND LIKE,

WHERE I'VE COME.

AND JUST I UNDERSTAND HOW

DIFFICULT IT IS FOR PEOPLE, YOU

KNOW, MY MOTHER, TO YOU KNOW,

UNDERSTAND.

I DON'T

THINK, BUT YOU KEEP SAYING THAT

IT'S INSANE, I DON'T THINK YOUR

MOM THINKS YOU'RE INSANE.

LIKE, I DON'T THINK ANYONE

THINKS LIKE, "OH MY GOD,

TANNER'S CRAZY."

YEARS AGO, IF SOMEONE SAID, YOU

ARE EXCEPTIONAL BUT YOU'RE NOT

THE EXCEPTION, YOU KNOW WHAT I

MEAN.

WHEN I WAS YOUNG, MY MOM TOLD ME

SHE WAS A LESBIAN.

AND THEN WHEN I WAS IN LIKE,

HIGH SCHOOL, MY MOM WAS BORN

AGAIN.

AND THEN SHE WAS LIKE,

"THAT'S NOT ME ANYMORE."

AND THEN I CALLED HER LAST NIGHT

AND I WAS LIKE, "MA, WHAT DO I

SAY TANNER SO THAT I CAN HAVE

RESPECT TO HIS RELIGION?"

AND MY MOM WAS LIKE, IT TOOK HER

A WHILE TO REALIZE THAT SHE IS A

PERFECT DESIGN, THERE WERE

NO FLAWS.

MY MOM SAID WHEN SHE WAS BEING

CREATED, THERE WAS NO OOPSIES,

THERE WASN'T TOO MUCH OF THIS,

TOO LITTLE OF THIS.

THE WAY SHE WAS MADE IS THE WAY

SHE WAS MADE INTENTIONALLY.

YOU ARE A PERFECT DESIGN.

I FEEL

LIKE WE RAN INTO TANNER AT

A REALLY PIVOTAL POINT IN HIS

LIFE.

I THINK THAT HE'S FIGURING OUT

WHAT HAPPINESS MEANS FOR HIM.

I HOPE THIS IS THERAPEUTIC,

THAT'S WHAT I HOPE.

I WANT HIM TO GET TO A POINT

WHERE HE CAN ACCEPT THE THINGS

THAT HE CANNOT CHANGE.

HOW ARE YOU FEELING

TODAY?

WHO?

YOU.

I'M FEELING GREAT.

YOU READY TO ROCK

AND ROLL?

UH-HUH.

GET THESE FOLKS RIGHT ON

TOGETHER, GIVE THEM A SHOW,

GIRL.

FUCK YOU.

OH, MY GOD.

I'M

LEANING TOWARDS THE BUTCH SIDE

OF ANDROG.

ROCK GLAM BUT LIKE, POP ROCK

GLAM, NOT LIKE KISS,

IT'S NOT SLIPKNOT.

SLIPKNOT.

YEAH,

SLIPKNOT.

WHAT ARE YOU THINKING ABOUT

THAT?

I'M GAME.

IF YOU THINK YOU'RE

THE ONLY GAY PERSON AROUND,

IT CAN MAKE YOU FEEL ISOLATED.

AND IN THIS PERFORMANCE, I WANT

CHARLES TO ALLOW THAT TO PROPEL

HIM AND THE REST OF THIS

COMMUNITY FORWARD, TO HELP US

MAKE A COMMUNITY.

WE'LL LOOK AT EACH

OTHER AND BE ABLE TO BE LIKE,

THAT'S GOOD, LET'S GO.

Eureka O'Hara:

IT'S IMPORTANT FOR CHRIS TO SAY,

FUCK THE STEREOTYPES, BECAUSE

THAT'S WHAT'S CAUSING HIM TO

HOLD A REALLY BEAUTIFUL PART OF

HIMSELF BACK.

OH, YOU'RE GONNA BE

BEAUTIFUL.

ULTIMATELY IT

COMES DOWN TO UNDERSTANDING

YOURSELF, FORGIVING YOURSELF AND

MOVING PAST SOME OF THE THINGS

THAT YOU'RE RESENTFUL TO

YOURSELF FOR.

LET THAT SHIT GO, BRO.

RICH, I HAVE ONE REQUEST.

YEAH?

YOU BETTER NOT

LET HER LOOK BETTER THAN ME

TONIGHT.

PHENOMENAL DRAG SHOW?

PLEASE MAKE SOME NOISE

HOW ARE YOU ALL DOING, BRANSON?

I'M SO EXCITED TO BE HERE

IN BRANSON.

YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU TRAVEL ALL

ACROSS THE CITY, IT IS SUCH A

BEAUTIFUL SHOW-BUSINESS CITY.

OUR GOAL IS NOT TO DIMINISH THE

SHOWBIZ YOU HAVE, BUT ONLY TO

ADD SOME MORE FABULOUS DISCO

HITS.

THE PEOPLE THAT KNOW

ME, KNOW THAT I'M GAY.

I HAVE NO FEARS.

I THINK THE LGBT COMMUNITY IS

PEOPLE IN BRANSON, MISS MIRANDA

JOLES.

THIS EXPERIENCE HAS

BEEN ABSOLUTELY AMAZING.

I WANTED TO APPROACH IT AS TO

TEACH EVERYONE THAT THERE IS

MANY MORE WAYS TO BE A MAN.

TWO YEARS AGO I WANTED TO END MY

LIFE.

AND I DIDN'T.

AND I KNOW WHY.

AND THAT REASON IS TO REACH OUT

AND HELP PEOPLE.

AND I'M DOING THAT RIGHT NOW.

IT FELT LIKE THE WHOLE PLACE

ERUPTED AND IT WAS AMAZING.

WAS IT

GREAT?

YES, IT WAS EVERYTHING

I WANTED.

I HAVE MORE SELF CONFIDENCE NOW,

I HAVE MORE.

I'M NOT GONNA LOOK AT MYSELF IN

THE SAME LIGHT THAT I HAVE.

I'M GONNA LOVE MYSELF FOR WHO I

AM.

YOU KNOW, LIKE THE

LAST COUPLE OF DAYS, I'VE SLOWLY

SEEN THIS LITTLE SPARK IN TANNER

AND HE'S LIKE GROWING.

HOW AMAZING.

THANK YOU FOR DOING THIS WITH

US.

NO, THANK YOU.

I'M REALLY

PROUD OF YOU.

HIS FAITH DOESN'T

BRING THAT SPARK BUT I, I DON'T

KNOW, THERE IS A SPARK THERE.

THERE IS A SPARK OF EXCITEMENT

I'VE SEEN IN THE LAST COUPLE OF

DAYS.

SO WE'LL SEE.

A HUMBLING EXPERIENCE AND SUCH

A LIFE CHANGING EXPERIENCE.

THIS WORLD NEEDS MORE LOVE, LOVE

ABOVE ALL ELSE, SMILE AT THE

NEXT PERSON YOU SEE, GIVE THE

NEXT PERSON YOU CAN A HUG.

FEEL THIS WORLD WITH LOVE.

I FOUND IN LIFE THAT THERE'S NO

SUCH THING AS COINCIDENCE.

TANNER,

TANNER.

TANNER, TANNER.

YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES

IT'S EASY TO FORGET THAT, YOU

KNOW, YOU HAVE SO MUCH LOVE IN

YOUR LIFE AND THIS WAS JUST

ANOTHER REMINDER OF YOU KNOW,

ALL THE PEOPLE WHO I HAVE IN MY

LIFE THAT ARE SUPPORTING ME.

WE'RE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER.

THE SEPARATION BETWEEN CHRISTIAN

AND LGBT, THAT ISN'T A

SEPARATION BY GOD, THAT IS A

SEPARATION BY PEOPLE.

SOMETIMES

YOU HAVE TO LET OTHER PEOPLE

LOVE YOU, SO YOU CAN FULLY LOVE

YOURSELF.

IT GOES BACK TO THE HUMAN

EXPERIENCE, EVERYONE WANTS PEACE

AND HAPPINESS.

WE ALL STRUGGLE AND WE CAN ALL

OVERCOME.

YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL,

OKAY.

WE DID IT!

IT WAS FUN.

YEAH.

ALL RIGHT.

I FEEL LIKE A

SUPERSTAR.

IT WAS REALLY AMAZING.

THERE'S A

THING ABOUT DRAG, IT'S LIKE YOU

CAN CONQUER THE WORLD.

AND ONCE YOU FEEL THAT, IT MAKES

YOU WANT TO START CHANGING

THINGS IN YOUR LIFE, SO THAT YOU

CAN FEEL THAT WAY AGAIN.

WELL, SO THIS TIME OR WHEN

YOU'RE AT THE POOL, WHAT ARE YOU

GONNA WEAR?

A SPEEDO.

A SPEEDO.

THIS IS GONNA

BE A MEMORY HE'S GONNA HOLD

FOREVER, NOT ONLY FOR HIM, BUT

ALSO FOR HIS DAUGHTER.

AND THAT'S THE MOST BEAUTIFUL

PART ABOUT THAT.

YOU LOOK SO CUTE.

WHEN YOU'RE ABLE JUST TO PUT ON

THE ARMOR OF WHO YOU ARE AND

WALK IN THAT TRUTH.

THAT'S THE MOST IMPORTANT THING.

THAT'S DRAG.

I FEEL LIKE A MIX OF

LIKE, CINDEL AND DAVID BOWIE.

A LITTLE CINDEL, YEAH.

I THINK HE FEELS

REALLY LOVED RIGHT NOW.

AND WHAT MORE COULD YOU ASK FOR,

RIGHT?

YOU KNOW.

I JUST WANT HIM TO BE HAPPY, I

JUST WANT THEM ALL TO BE HAPPY.

Hello!

Lord, I put on all this
for nothing?

We are
in Farmington, New Mexico.

Hopefully, we can
show Farmington what fun looks like!

- Ah!
- Oh God, oh God.

- Ok, alright.
- Ah!

Oh my God.

As an indigenous gay male,

on the reservation,
I was picked on, I was scared.

We all accepted her,
but I think she knew

that other people didn't.

I want to create support from
the community here in Farmington.

That's what drag does;
it helps you create strength

that you don't know where
to find it.

You have the spotlight,
and they have to listen.

Let's cause a scene.
