| Description |
In December 1980, John Lennon was shot dead outside his Manhattan apartment by Mark Chapman, a deranged fan. Now John Waters is picking over the remains of his persona ... on a bare stage accompanied only by Stewart D'Arietta on his keyboard, Waters sings and narrates snatches from Lennon's life, from The Beatles and beyond. |
