❓ 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧:
Grab your cha-cha heels and prepare for one of the most outrageous cult experiences ever put on screen. Female Trouble is John Waters at his most transgressive, a darkly comic descent into crime, fame, and the grotesque beauty of bad behaviour.
This is a riotous manifesto where “crime is beauty,” and every scene drips with camp excess, shock value, and gleeful rebellion against suburban normalcy. Expect Divine in full anarchic glory, outrageous crimes staged like fashion shoots, and a finale that turns an electric chair into an Oscar podium.
✨ Come for the chaos, stay for the cha-cha heels, and remember, fame is criminal.
❓ 𝗪𝗛𝗢:
Written, produced, and directed by John Waters, the Pope of Trash himself, this underground masterpiece stars:
• Divine as Dawn Davenport, the delinquent diva who spirals into crime and infamy — and also as Earl Peterson, her sleazy fling
• David Lochary as Donald Dasher, the beauty salon impresario with a taste for criminal glamour
• Mary Vivian Pearce as Donna Dasher, his equally twisted partner
• Mink Stole as Taffy Davenport, Dawn’s neglected daughter
• Edith Massey as Aunt Ida, the eccentric voice of warped morality
A film that transformed bad taste into high art, Female Trouble cemented Waters’ reputation as the king of underground cinema and Divine as a cult icon.
❓ 𝗪𝗛𝗘𝗥𝗘:
Get ready to throw toast, shout at the screen, and Time Warp your heart out at Gosford Cinema, where this cult classic comes to life like nowhere else.
Step into the gutter-glam world of Female Trouble at Gosford Cinema, where John Waters’ vision of suburban decay and criminal beauty explodes onto the big screen.
✨ Expect midnight madness, camp theatrics, and themed cocktails that celebrate trash chic. Beau’s Burgers will be serving up greasy-spoon realness to match the film’s anarchic vibe. Whether you’re a die-hard Waters fan or a first-time troublemaker, this is a night to revel in filth, fame, and fabulousness.
