For more than 15 years, the legendary drag festival Wigstock was a premiere end-of-summer celebration for New York’s LGBTQ community. Two of Hollywood’s most outspoken LGBTQ stars, Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka, will executive produce the festival with drag icon Lady Bunny, who founded the 1985 original.
