What is The Legend of Georgia McBride about?
He’s young, he’s broke, his landlord’s knocking at the door and he’s just found out his wife is going to have a baby. To make matters even more desperate, Casey is fired from his gig as an Elvis impersonator in a run-down, small-town Florida bar. When the bar owner brings in a B-level drag show to replace his act, Casey finds that he has a whole lot to learn about show business, and himself.
Bursting with humour and heart, The Legend of Georgia McBride is a joyous celebration of friendship, self-discovery and the extraordinary things that can happen when you dare to step outside your comfort zone.
