Violet Tendencies screening at 2011 Stella Artois QFest

Four-time QFest veteran Casper Andreas ("The Big Gay Musical," "Between Love & Goodbye," "A Four Letter Word") directs a delightful comic tale of a fag hag looking for love in all the wrong places. Forty-year-old Violet (Mindy Cohn, "Facts of Life") is gay royalty one of Manhattan's oldest and most popular fruit flies. Violet is the racy, raunchy, and fun-loving belle of the ball, but when the party ends, she always winds up at home alone. While handsome co-worker Riley struggles with a baby-crazy boyfriend and her roommate Luke considers this new thing called monogamy, Violet's romantic life consists of a series of late-night telephone dating calls followed by ill-fated real-life encounters. Various friends give her well-meaning but conflicting advice that ultimately leads her to abandon her lively posse of gay boys to seek love in the "straight" world. Violet strikes out on a hilarious quest to change the woman she is in order to have a man of her own and no longer be the single gal of a certain age. Chasing love and lust at all costs takes its toll on her until she at last discovers happiness in the most unlikely of places.
