Synopsis:
Nia
Vardalos
and
Toni
Collette
play
Connie
and
Carla,
two
struggling
Chicago
dinner
theater
performers
who
accidentally
witness
a
mafia
hit...
and
who
subsequently
hit
the
road,
running
for
their
lives.
Assuming
the
killers
will
never
look
for
them
in
a
place
devoid
of
culture,
the
pair
head
to
Los
Angeles,
where
they
assume
new
identities
and
find
their
middling
talent
at
song
and
dance
perfectly
suited
to
new
careers
-
as
drag
queens.
Much
to
their
surprise,
they
inadvertently
become
the
toast
of
the
cabaret
circuit.
As
their
ruse
becomes
increasingly
difficult
to
maintain,
they
discover
that
it
is
indeed
lonely
at
the
top,
especially
after
Connie
meets
Jeff
(Duchovny),
a
guy
she'd
really
like
to
be
a
real
girl
with.
With
the
mafia
zeroing
in
and
the
line
separating
their
onstage/offstage
personas
blurring
beyond
the
point
of
recognition,
Connie
and
Carla
soon
discover
the
power
of
not
compromising
to
pursue
your
dreams,
fighting
the
good
fight,
and
never,
never
underestimating
the
transformative
power
of
cosmetics.
