Storyline
The story begins with its portrayal of Rob’s attempt to put on a full-fledged Disney parade at their home for grandma when he was 12 years old. Rob put on a wig and took on the roles of Micky Mouse, Mary Poppins, Belle, and Ariel. Their father served as both Goofy and the stage manager-cum-sound technician. Sadly, Dad completely missed his cues, causing all of the floats to be moved in the wrong direction. Mum mistook Aladdin for Ursula. Both the outfits and the props turned out to be disastrous. Even Ariel's bubble gun wouldn't function properly. Grandma, nonetheless, appeared to be enjoying herself. Get your My Son's A Queer, (But What Can You Do?)
