john waters: this filthy world

Synopsis

THIS FILTHY WORLD is John Waters’ one-man show, a “vaudeville” act that celebrates the film career and 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.
