Event Details:

For the past 10 years, John Waters has been expanding and updating his one-man show "This Filthy World." Waters' vaudeville act celebrates the film career and obsessional tastes of the man William Burroughs once called, "The Pope of Trash." Focusing in on Waters' early negative artistic influences and his fascination with true crime, exploitation films, fashion lunacy and the extremes of the contemporary art world - this joyously devious monologue elevates all that is trashy in life into a call to arms to "filth followers" everywhere.
