A Show Boat Load of Laughter!

Comedy

In the gay '90s, cardsharps take over a Mississippi riverboat from a kindly captain. Their first act is to change the showboat into a floating gambling house. A ham actor and his bumbling sidekick try to devise a way to help the captain regain ownership of the vessel.

VIBE

Expect a whirlwind of boisterous gags and over-the-top performances. This film feels like a chaotic, good-natured brawl set to a jaunty tune, perfect for a laugh-out-loud good time.
