Drag Queens On Trial
Three drag queens are prosecuted for wearing drag. Judy Goose, Lorna Lust and Marlene Delorme. Marlene claims - despite being black that she was born a blonde. Her hairdresser says he dyed her hair and exposes her as a man. She is found guilty. Judy claims that she only wore drag because the producer of a play insisted that she did. The prosecutor proves that Judy is using the plot of the movie "Madame X" as her life story. She is proved to be a man and is found guilty. Lorna is in the witness box and waiting for the results of an AIDS test. A surprise witness arrives. It is her doctor who is also a preacher. She is HIV+ and the witness attacks Lorna for her life style and wearing drag
