WIG (HBO)

Wigstock was an annual drag festival that glamorously signaled the end of summer for the gay community in NYC for almost 20 years. Late one night in 1984, Lady Bunny and a few friends drunkenly wandered from the Pyramid Club in the East Village to Tompkins Square Park and staged an impromptu drag show in the bandshell. This would soon become an annual drag bacchanal, which lasted until 2001. And now, Lady Bunny, a cultural icon in her own right, has brought it back. This past summer, the festival returned, bringing together legendary queens with a new generation of drag, for one of the largest drag performances ever staged.
