When struggling, out of work actor Michael Dorsey secretly adopts a female alter ego—Dorothy Michaels—in order to land a part in a daytime drama, he unwittingly becomes a feminist icon and ends up in a romantic pickle.
Michael Dorsey finds his way back to the stage by hiding behind a wig and a sharp-tongued feminine persona. This chaotic masquerade turns a desperate career move into a genuine lesson in empathy and unexpected romance.
