World of Wonder Co-Founders on Why ‘Stop! That! Train!’ Matters
from The Parting Shot with H. Alan Scott
Randy Barbato and Fenton Bailey on World of Wonder, Stop! That! Train! and why RuPaul was born to lead a disaster movie. In a media landscape that Bailey describes as its own disaster movie, "tectonic, seismic change" and all, Stop! That! Train! is their answer: an hour and a half of joyful, unapologetic stupidity at a moment when joy feels like its own act of resistance. "There is power in that," Barbato said. "It's a reason to leave the house for crying out loud."
