But I’m a Cheerleader
June 10, 7:00pm
1999 | Rated R | Comedy/Romance
Megan (Natasha Lyonne) is a model high school student—bright, popular, and dating the star football player. But when her parents suspect she might be gay, they send her to True Directions, a hilariously absurd conversion therapy camp run by the strict and ultra-traditional Mary Brown (Cathy Moriarty). There, Megan meets a rebellious group of fellow “trainees” and the confident, free-spirited Graham (Clea DuVall), who challenges everything Megan thought she knew about herself. A satirical, candy-colored cult classic, But I’m a Cheerleader is a sharp, heartfelt comedy about identity, self-acceptance, and the power of love.
Also starring RuPaul, Melanie Lynskey, and Eddie Cibrian. Directed by Jamie Babbit. Learn more about the movie here!
Tickets must be purchased through The Carolina Theatre’s website.
