15TH ANNUAL <strong>OUTFEST</strong> ACHIEVEMENT AWARD:<br />
FENTON BAILEY & RANDY BARBATO<br />
Few acts can balance mainstream popularity with cult status and maintain their independence, singular vision,<br />
and relevance – especially in the mood shifting LGBT landscape. For twenty years, Fenton Bailey’s and<br />
Randy Barbato’s World of Wonder global entertainment company has been producing ground breaking and<br />
landmark film, television, and web programming often reflecting lifestyles and subjects no one else is brave<br />
enough to approach. Their ambitious work has had a profound impact on LGBT audiences, and we’re proud to<br />
call them part of the Outfest family.<br />
Emerging from the ‘80s punk scene as disco-pop-rock duo The Fabulous Pop Tarts and NYU’s Graduate Film<br />
Program, the multi-media partnership between Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato morphed into World of<br />
Wonder in 1990. Their immediate success gave birth to an immense and diverse body of work including<br />
1997’s “The Real Ellen Story,” the 1998 Outfest award-winning “shockumentary” PARTY MONSTER; the<br />
wildly popular documentary THE EYES OF TAMMY FAYE that opened Outfest in 2000; and “101 Rent Boys”<br />
also in 2000.<br />
In 2003, Randy and Fenton became the first filmmakers to twice open Outfest – this time with a scripted<br />
version of the “party monster” story (PARTY MONSTER). Over the years they have produced work for almost<br />
every US Cable Network, including six seasons of “Tori & Dean” and “RuPaul’s Drag Race” now shooting its<br />
fourth season. They premiered their latest documentary film BECOMING CHAZ at this year’s Sundance Film<br />
Festival and in May the film was broadcast on OWN as the first film in the Oprah Winfrey Documentary Club.<br />
Randy and Fenton continue to expand their reach with everything from blogs to an art gallery and a coffee<br />
table book. WOW. WOW.<br />
