(ANNANDALE-on-HUDSON, N.Y.) – Filmmaker John Waters and comedian Sandra Bernhard headline in the Spiegeltent at Bard Summerscape on Friday, July 7, and Saturday, July 8, respectively, with two shows each night at 6pm and 8:30pm.

Legendary filmmaker and comedian John Waters (Cry-Baby, Pink Flamingos, Female Trouble, and Hairspray) launches the Spiegeltent season with his one-man show. Part confession, part vaudeville, “This Filthy World” takes on taboos with charisma and charm, resulting in a hilarious and uncensored evening with an American treasure.

 

Sandra Bernhard is heading east on Route 66 to bring “Sandra Monica Blvd.: Coast to Coast to New York.” Traversing the country, Bernhard takes the audience on a journey to find the soul of America via the back roads and the byways on a gas station map, with a soundtrack one might find on an AM radio station.
