JOHN WATERS: GOING TO EXTREMES

SUNDAY, JULY 26, 7 PM

John Waters is back on the road with a whole new fast-moving crackpot comedy show that will beg the authorities to drop a net on both him and his rabidly insane audience. He knows his deviously demented fans will fight back with a limp-wrist fist.

He’s dressed to thrill and ready to rant about pro-punk conversion therapy, right-wing female-female impersonators, extreme amusement parks, even prank guerrilla placement of phony incendiary book titles in libraries that recently banned gay children’s classics.

Yessir, the Duke of Dirt has reckless eyeballs and he’s lookin’ for you, lunatics!

Join us in the Minikes Garden after the program for a book signing, where BookHampton will be on site selling several of John Water’s titles.
