Manger Danger
John Waters comes upon the midnight clear with holiday show RICH LOPEZ | Staff writerrich@dallasvoice.com It may be the most wonderful time of the year for some, but it’s about to be the most irreverent time, too, thanks to the “Pope of Trash” (William Burroughs words, not mine).
Director, author and storyteller John Waters is on his way to Dallas for a not-so-silent night at the Kessler on Tuesday, Dec.
6, at 7 p.m. His annual show A John Waters Christmas is back, and he’s got a lot to say — as always. This year marks the longest tour yet for Waters’ show.
He is hitting 20 cities in 23 days, and he’s already stressing about that. As he got ready to head to Dallas, he talked about getting this year’s show ready the old fashioned way and how his holidays may not be what one would expect from the auteur. Dallas Voice: We’re still under the cloud of the pandemic but you’ve been on the road since then, right? John Waters: I did it last year, and I just made it because the new strand just came out in our last leg.
