Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato founded World of Wonder after meeting in NYU's graduate film program in the mid-'80s.[15] Intent on becoming famous, they formed a disco-pop-rock duo called the Fabulous Pop Tarts under their “World of Wonder” record label and began performing regularly at Danceteria and other clubs in downtown New York City.[15][16] They produced two albums, Age of the Thing[17] which included their hit single, "New York City Beat," and Gagging on the Lovely Extravaganza, which included guest appearances by Lady Miss Kier, RuPaul, Martyn Phillips, and Filthy the Dog.[18] World of Wonder was organized initially in order to manage the Fabulous Pop Tarts, enable projects in television production and licensing, documentary film-making, and career expansion of their friends and fellow artists, particularly RuPaul.

Bailey and Barbato began their partnership with drag queen RuPaul in Atlanta in the 1980s and have worked together ever since.[19] They produced RuPaul's first album, “RuPaul is Star Booty,” in 1986 and became his manager shortly after launching World of Wonder in 1991. They have since produced all of his television shows, his DragCon bi-coastal conventions and music productions, earning multiple Emmy Awards along the way.[19]

World of Wonder shares its name with one of its early television documentaries, Died on the 4th of July: Nelson Sullivan's World of Wonder. Nelson Sullivan was a central figure in the downtown New York City art and club scene of the 1980s, obsessively videotaping everyone and everything he saw before dying of a heart attack on July 4, 1989. He left behind over 1200 hours of video footage that he'd shot over the last ten years of his life.[20] From this archive World of Wonder created the one-hour documentary portrait of Nelson which aired on UK's Channel 4, and is also included on the DVD release of Party Monster: The Shockumentary.[21] Based, in part, on this documentary, Sullivan has continued to gain respect as a noted historian, with his videos gaining a younger and wider viewership on YouTube.[20] The early focus on Nelson Sullivan formed the basis of the company's ongoing interest in documentary film-making. In 2014, Bailey and Barbato were honored with the IDA Pioneer Award, "celebrating exceptional achievement, leadership, and vision in the nonfiction and documentary community".[22]

World of Wonder operates out of a historical art-deco building on Hollywood Boulevard. Designed by architects S. Tilden Norton and Fredrick H. Wallis and erected in 1930, the building served as the original home of the Directors Guild of America.[23][24] The World of Wonder Storefront Gallery now occupies the ground floor retail space, with production and management offices occupying the upper three stories. The basement, once home to the punk rock club The Masque, now houses the company's video archive and a soundstage.[25]

World of Wonder primarily produces television content for networks in the US and UK, including BBC, Channel 4, FIVE, HBO, Cinemax, TLC, PBS, Showtime, A&E, MTV, VH1 and Bravo.[8] Productions over the past three decades include RuPaul's Drag Race, Manhattan Cable with Laurie Pike,[26][27] The Adam and Joe Show,[28]Tori & Dean: Inn Love, Good Work, Million Dollar Listing, docuseries, Heli-Loggers, Pam Anderson: Girl on the Loose, Big Freedia, and Island Hunters.[9] World of Wonder also produced the documentary series One Punk Under God, Sex Change Hospital, and TransGeneration, one of the first unscripted television shows to focus on the Trans community,[8] which won the 2006 GLAAD Award for Outstanding Documentary.[29]

The company has been producing RuPaul's Drag Race franchise since 2009, including The RuPaul Show, RuPaul's Drag Race, and RuPaul's Drag Race: All Stars, the spinoff series RuPaul's Drag U (2010-2012), and RuPaul's Drag Race: Untucked, a behind-the-scenes after show which is aired following each new episode of the original series.[19]

Another franchise by WOW, Million Dollar Listing, debuted in LA in 2006 and has since expanded to include New York, San Francisco and Miami series.[30] The spin-off, Sell It Like Serhant, featuring one of Million Dollar Listing New York's top broker, Ryan Serhant launched in 2018.[8]

World of Wonder's work in television has been honored with over two dozen Emmy nominations and multiple wins for RuPaul’s Drag Race, including awards for best overall in the reality category and best host.[31] They have also received several Emmy nominations for their documentary programming.

Bailey and Barbato have produced a host of other original documentaries, including Party Monster: The Shockumentary, which won an editing Emmy;[21] The Eyes of Tammy Faye, Monica in Black and White[2], Gender Revolution with Katie Couric,[39][21] and The Last Beekeeper.[40] In 2017, Out of Iraq, their documentary chronicling the relationship between two enlisted men serving in Iraq won a daytime Emmy for Logo TV.[41] In March 2018, the documentary When the Beat Drops, directed by Jamal Sims, premiered at the Miami International Film Festival, where it won the Knight Documentary Achievement Award.[42][43] In 2018, World of Wonder produced and directed an HBO documentary examining the history of the Statue of Liberty, “Liberty: Mother of Exiles.”[44] The company was also commissioned by YouTube to create Stonewall Outloud, a documentary based on the Stonewall gay rights protests of 1969, using the audio recordings of StoryCrops founder, Dave Isay.[45]

New Media

Over the years, World of Wonder expanded their presence into new types of media, including conventions, video-on-demand, social media and blogging. The WOW Report, a blog providing daily coverage of the pop culture and nightlife sectors and was named Best Counter Culture Blog by LA Weekly in 2011.[46]

In 2015, World of Wonder added conventions to their portfolio with the launch of RuPaul's DragCon LA located at the Los Angeles Convention Center.[47] The largest celebration of drag art and culture in the world with over 50,000 attendees, they launched RuPaul's DragCon NYC in the city's Javits Convention Center in 2017, where it was a complete sell-out.[48][49]

In November 2017, World of Wonder launched the subscription streaming service WOW Presents Plus.[50] The service provides access to its exclusive library of TV shows, movies and live events, along with new original material spanning the realm of pop culture and LGBTQ society.[51] Its exclusive original series include “Cool Mom with Jinkx Monsoon,” "UNHhhh," and “Detox’s Life Rehab.”[52] WOW Presents Plus also has a focus on documentaries, having produced “Becoming Chaz” and “Died on the 4th of July: Nelson Sullivan's World of Wonder.”
