In the vein of CLUELESS and NAPOLEON DYNAMITE, FREAK SHOW tells the moving, heartwarming, and hilarious story of Billy Bloom, a boldly confident, wildly eccentric teenager, who faces intolerance and persecution at his ultra conservative high school, and decides to fight back on behalf of all the misunderstood freaks of the world by running for the title of homecoming queen. Billy Bloom once lived a fabulous life in Connecticut, with his equally fabulous mother, Muv. But when he is suddenly shipped off to his father's Southern mansion, he finds himself a fish out of water. With his closet of extravagant and flamboyant attire, Billy is completely different from the cheerleaders, bible belles, and beefy quarterbacks at his new high school, but determined to be himself - even if that does mean wearing face glitter to school.
