Tucked

Directed by Jamie Patterson

Gender non-conforming Jackie is an 80-year-old drag queen with an acerbic nightclub comedy act. Diagnosed with cancer but determined to go out with a bang, they keep on performing and boozing. Despite this, at home Jackie is confronted with solitude and regret over family estrangements. Then, young non-binary performer Faith appears in the dressing room and Jackie must show them the ropes. Despite demographic differences, they realise how much they have in common and become each other’s support network in this feel-good, Brighton-based comedy.
