When David-Sedaris-wannabe personal essayist Carrol Thomas takes credit for his neighbor’s romantasy smut novel, fortune follows quickly. But fame isn’t easy when you’re an ethically corrupt gay guy.

WIG PAGEANT GRANDE FINALE SEASON 2: WHODUNIT?

On the evening of December 8th, former Wig Pageant Character Actor Supreme Daniel Murphy was assassinated on stage at the Toledo Mayor’s Mansion as a character acting pageant was set to begin. What happened next? Well, our six contestants became suspects and, I’m proud to announce, hilarity and hi jinx ensued. Leaving Lily Armstrong as the murderer and our new Wig Pageant Character Acting Supreme.

Goodbye Wig Pageant, you’ve been so good to us and the people of Ohio, but we think it’s time for Vince and Miss Charlès to find a different stage…
