For director John Waters, the genius behind trash masterpieces like Pink Flamingos and Female Trouble, there’s an even greater commendation: A public restroom named in his honor.
It’s also more than a decade since the most recent Broadway musical based on a John Waters film, 2008’s Cry-Baby.
“That’s when I realized that art could provoke, shock, and cause trouble,” Waters told The Sun.
It’s been more than 15 years since Waters directed a new movie; A Dirty Shame opened in theaters back in 2004.
