11/03/18 First Look: Jackie Weaver, Adrian Grenier Hit San Fran's Drag Scene in 'Stage Mother'

Jacki Weaver and Adrian Grenier enjoy San Francisco’s drag scene in this exclusive first-look from comedy-drama Stage Mother, being shopped at the AFM by Film Mode Entertainment. Lucy Liu and Mya Taylor also star in the film, about a conservative Texas church-choir director who finds a new meaning to life after she inherits her son’s drag club.

Stage Mother, which is currently shooting in Canada, is being directed by Thom Fitzgerald (Splinters) from a script by San Francisco screenwriter Brad Hennig (The Hot Flashes).

“Audiences will be jumping up in their seats singing, dancing and shedding a tear in this incredibly heartfelt and fun romp through the glitter of the drag culture,” said Clay Epstein of Film Mode Entertainment.

"I've been so impressed with Thom Fitzgerald's work as a director,” added producer J. Todd Harris. “He and screenwriter Brad Henning shared a similar vision for this funny yet poignant movie and it's all up on the screen - every outrageous moment of it.”
