Cascade
In Conversation With: Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato, Co-Founders, World of Wonder
World of Wonder co-founders Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato sit down to talk about the enormous, international success of Drag Race, WOW’s award-winning subversive documentaries including projects such as The Eyes of Tammy Faye, Party Monster, and Mapplethorpe: Look at the Pictures, and their owned-and-operated SVOD WOW Presents Plus. They will also discuss the cultural importance of drag and giving a platform to marginalized voices, and how World of Wonder is continuing toward total “world” domination.
*Join us in the CRAVE Lounge for a special book signing with Fenton Bailey immediately after the session. The first 100 people get a copy of his book ‘Screen Age’ How TV shaped our reality, from Tammy Faye to RuPaul's Drag Race.
