Out at the Wedding
7:30 p.m. Friday, May 30

The director of The Ten Rules (which was the basis for the new Logo series Exes & Ohs) and the producers of the 2005 festival favorite Girl Play return with this romantic comedy centering around Alex (Andrea Marcellus) who can’t bring herself to tell her conservative family she is engaged to her bi-racial boyfriend. A misunderstood wedding speech and a rumor she’s a lesbian later, her newly-married sister comes to visit for some family bonding. However, when she meets Alex’s stand-in “girlfriend” all bets are off in this quirky comedy. Also starring Charlie Schlatter (Parker Lewis Can’t Lose), Mike Farrell (M*A*S*H) and Mink Stole of John Waters film fame.
