Sisters of the Wicked Wig
Merrie Cherry and Horrorchata are two experimental drag queens whose love for one another is matched only by their ambition to be seen as dominant forces within the gritty drag culture of Brooklyn’s Bushwick neighborhood. We follow Merrie and Horrorchata through two years of their life as they contend with challenges ranging from coming out to their families as drag queens to the sacrifices they must make to survive as fringe artists in a city whose ever-increasing cost of living drives experimentalism further and further away from the center. Featuring explosive live footage from the first three incarnations of the “Bushwig” drag Festival and commentary from Warhol superstar Penny Arcade (star of 1971’s Women in Revolt) and legendary drag queen Flawless Sabrina (star of 1968’s The Queen), Sisters of the Wicked Wig is a story of survival, friendship, creativity and family in the context of contemporary Brooklyn, New York. |
