Russell, an actor turned drag queen, is given a wrenching ultimatum just as the curtain is going up. Overcome by indecision, he escapes to his grandmother’s house in the country. There he finds Grandma Margaret in steep decline. In a perfect, if precarious, solution for both of them, he moves in to protect her from her greatest fear – the local nursing home. Featuring Cloris Leachman in her final starring role before her death, JUMP, DARLING pairs the fun of drag with an iconic diva and asks all the right questions about what inspires us all to carry on.
