Don’t worry it’s a socio-political absurdist comedy dealing with racism, misogyny, and homophobia…but the audience won’t notice because it’s funny.

Dedicated to:

“To anyone who has ever gotten a beat down  looking like a woman, being a woman, looking like a queer, being a queer, not being manly enough, being too manly, or having the audacity to be any race other than Caucasian, here’s the last laugh.”
 
Angela is excited to be co-writing her first novel with WL Bryan…more details as the series comes together.
