Orpheum Theatre (Los Angeles, CA)
Outfest 2008 concludes with a new film by Stewart Wade, a charming romantic comedy and an unabashed gay contribution to the canon of teen films. Tru is the new kid at her SoCal high school. She has two moms, two dads and everybody thinks she's the big dyke on campus. However, Tru is thrilled when Lo, a boy, asks her out. He's gorgeous, the star quarterback and on their second date he takes her to see...the Marvelous Wonderettes?

With a fierce determination to fight for equal rights, Tru might just succeed in getting everybody around her to toss out their preconceived notions, open their minds, and be true to themselves and those they love.
Talented Najarra Townsend as Tru and other rising actors carry the film, as familiar faces like Jasmine Guy, Nichelle Nichols (Lt. Uhura from Star Trek!), Jane Lynch, Alec Mapa, and Bruce Vilanch round out the stellar supporting cast.
