DEL SHORES: SINgularly SORDID

Rain on 4th is pleased to present Del Shores’ new stand-up show - Del Shores: SINgularly SORDID Sunday November 15, 2015 at 9pm.
The Southern-loved writer/director/producer and most recently added stand-up comedian has a love affair with Austin, having recently returned to the AGLIFF launch with a sold out screening of his cult film Sordid Lives. The screening commemorated the film winning Best Feature Film at the festive 15 years ago.
The creator of the Sordid Lives franchise and writer/director/producer of Southern Baptist Sissies, Daddy’s Dyin’…Who’s Got The Will?, Blues for Willadean and Queer Is Folk is back on stage with all new hysterical, sordid stories. This time, Shores discusses the unexpected comedy of returning to the world of dating after divorce in your 50s. Tinder, Grindr, Scruff, OkCupid – “Oh, sh*t!” Shores quips, “Sometimes it's just too damn much!” He shares a litany of bad dates and his own trials and tribulations of being on the prowl again when you are a "minor gay celebrity".
In SINgularly Sordid, Shores also poses the question – “Did my movie Sordid Lives really influence six different women to super-glue their cheating boyfriends and husband's… um, members, to their stomachs?”
And of course, Shores shares more letters from the haters and his P.S.F.U. responses. Also, he has some new celebrity dish on Dolly Parton, Leslie Jordan and more. The censors will be absent and if you are easily offended – Shores warns, “Stay home!”
Shores has had a busy year with the release of the film of his play Southern Baptist Sissies, which received both critical and commercial success. He has also just completed the screenplay for the final chapter of his Sordid Lives franchise – A Very Sordid Wedding. “Yes, we’re returning to the characters one last time, bringing them into 2015 with Equality marching into Winters, Texas.” Shores said recently. The film is set to film in Dallas and Canada in May of 2016.
Del Shores: SINgularly Sordid will be presented Sunday November 15 at 9pm at Rain on 4th. There is no cover for his show – first come, first seated!
