Win a pair of tickets to see John Waters at the Civic Theatre!

Just before his breakthrough with 1972’s “Pink Flamingos,” the filmmaker John Waters briefly lived in New Orleans. He returns to the city often, appearing at the Tennessee Williams/New Orleans Literary Festival and exhibits of his photos at the Arthur Roger Gallery. New Orleans is a frequent stop for his one-man shows, too. A John Waters Christmas comes to the Civic Theatre on December 15.

To enter for a chance to win a pair of tickets, fill out the form below (and don’t forget to take advantage of bonus entries!). We’ll notify the winner via e-mail on the morning of December 14 (Friday).

Below is an excerpt from our current issue’s Backtalk, featuring Mr. Waters:

In general, though, you still enjoy Christmas?

I do—but I understand why people hate it. And this year it’s going to be tough to not have fights about politics when people go home. Families are divided, just like the country. So, I’m telling everybody to get a whistle and blow it every time someone mentions politics. And then maybe people will just start laughing and not discuss it. Because nobody’s going to change their mind. That’s the problem.

Tickets for a John Waters Christmas are available here.
