Last night, the Palm Springs International Film Festival hosted the World Premiere of Stage Mother, a comedic drama starring Jacki Weaver, Lucy Lui and Adrian Grenier about a conservative church choir director who inherits a drag club in San Francisco from the son from whom she became estranged when he came out.
Prior to the sold-out screening at the Annenberg Theater in Palm Springs, Jacki Weaver walked the red carpet, joined by notable Palm Springs Drag Queens Bella da Ball, Marina Mac, and Anita Rose. The film's director Thom Fitzgerald, along with writer/producer Brad Hennig, producer J. Todd Harris, executive producer Clay Epstein, and actors Oscar Moreno and Allister MacDonald were also in attendance for the premiere.
Following the screening and Q&A, an after party took place at The Saguaro Palm Springs, featuring performances by Drag Queen Sabrina.
