John Waters

Dubbed the “Pope of Trash” by novelist William S. Burroughs, Waters is a member of The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences. He has written and directed sixteen movies, including “Pink Flamingos”, “Hairspray” (both of them added to the U.S. Library of Congress’ National Film Registry), “Female Trouble”, “Polyester”, “Cry Baby”, “Serial Mom” and “A Dirty Shame”. Waters is also the author of ten books, including “Shock Value”, “Crackpot”, and “Pink Flamingos and Other Trash”, as well as his first novel in 2022, “Liarmouth: A Feel Bad Romance”. For the exclusive post-show “Group Therapy” session, 50 patrons will receive a signed copy of “Liarmouth” and have the opportunity, unlike during his show, to photograph John as he speaks during this private session, or have a final photo op where each guest lines around the rim of the stage to take a selfie with John in the background as he points to each one.
