John Waters: Devil's Advocate - A 78th Birthday Show
City Winery NYC Presents John Waters live on April 22nd at 8pm
Stage Premier Section "Group Therapy VIP" includes an autographed poster, a selfie from a distance, and a post-show small Group Therapy session with John.
John Waters is turning 78 and you’re invited to the party. Is he a cautionary contrarian, a reactionary radical, or a true Devil’s Advocate? In this all-new, fast-moving, part-confessional, part-inquisitional comic spoken word show, the filth elder known for his “transgressive” films and his “subversive” books salutes the new gender-guerilla generation of today for doing the impossible — actually making him nervous. Together, he demands, we must form a new rainbow of rancid colors and seize back the sexual revolution from the self-righteousness of the left and the intolerance of the right.
A new middle-of-the-road madness that uses humor as terrorism, wit as ammunition. A happy family of all-age, cuckoo crossover: hip-hop hippies, pansy punks, queer gangstas, down-low hos, and shit-kicking skeezers.
We’re here. We sneer. Don’t get used to us. John Waters - he’s the Devil’s Advocate and his questions must be answered.
