Act 2 Update: Introducing "Interlude A"

First off, from Team AQ, we'd like to express our gratitude for the tremendous support Midwest Angelica has received in the past few months! Thank you all for supporting the series, it truly means a lot.

Regarding Act 2 of Midwest Angelica, we had to make the tough choice to delay the rest of the season until the summer months. Because of the nature of the story we want to tell with Act 2, we need to wait until the summer months to film in order to accurately capture the aesthetics ...
