Summary:
On New Year's Eve, 1969, a flamboyant ragtag troupe of genderbending hippies took the stage of San Francisco's Palace Theater and The Cockettes were born. For the next 2 1/2 years, these outrageous drag performers created 20 shows with titles like "A Crab on Uranus Means You're Loved" and "Tinsel Tarts in a Hot Coma," and were featured in four underground films. But when the Cockettes flew to New York City to appear Off Broadway^Å well, you'll just have to see what happened when New Yorkers took a look at them. Documentarians Weissman and Weber have expertly crafted a record of a wondrous time and a wild group in The Cockettes, and you won't want to miss a minute of it.
