To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar - 30th Anniversary!

CO-PRESENTED BY UNITE! MUSIC FESTIVAL

Celebrate 30 fabulous years of the iconic road trip that sashayed its way into cinematic history. To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar follows three New York City drag queens—Vida Boheme (Patrick Swayze), Noxeema Jackson (Wesley Snipes), and Chi-Chi Rodriguez (John Leguizamo)—as they embark on a cross-country journey that takes a detour into the heart of small-town America. What begins as a misadventure becomes a life-affirming story of acceptance, resilience, and fabulous transformation. Armed with sequins, sass, and the wisdom of a framed photo of Julie Newmar, the trio touches lives, challenges norms, and reminds a community—and a generation—of the power of kindness, courage, and being unapologetically oneself. With groundbreaking performances, vibrant costumes, and a message that still resonates, To Wong Foo remains a trailblazing celebration of queer joy, friendship, and found family. Join us in honoring this beloved cult classic—still fierce, still fabulous, and more relevant than ever.
