The Birdcage — 30th Anniversary Screening

Step into the glittering world of one of cinema’s most beloved LGBTQ+ comedies as Feast Festival presents a special 30th anniversary screening of The Birdcage. This unforgettable film — a hilarious, heartwarming tale of love, identity, and family — is a cornerstone of queer cinema and still resonates today with its sharp wit and genuine emotion.

Set in the vibrant nightlife of South Beach, Miami, this story follows Armand, a gay club owner, and his partner Albert as they navigate the hilarious — and sometimes chaotic — complexities of meeting the conservative parents of their son’s fiancée. Packed with unforgettable performances and iconic dialogue, this screening is a perfect blend of camp, class, and comfort.

Screening at The Piccadilly in North Adelaide, this event offers a wheelchair-accessible, seated experience — perfect for settling in and enjoying a night of laughter and nostalgia. While the film includes references to emotional abuse, alcohol use, homophobia, and strong language, its ultimate message is one of acceptance and the enduring power of love.

Whether you’re revisiting the film for the first time in decades or experiencing it for the first time, this screening promises a warm, inclusive night out — all in celebration of queer joy and cinematic classics.
