20th Anniversary Celebration (2012)
“A John Water’s Christmas”
December 16, 2012
Hochstein Performance Hall
“Like a wayward Santa for the Christmas obsessed, legendary filmmaker and raconteur John Waters rides into town on his sleigh full of smut this December spreading yuletide cheer with his critically acclaimed one-man show,” says The New York Times of “A John Waters Christmas” …and ImageOut is bringing it to Rochester! Prepare yourself for the holidays as you’ve never experienced them before as John Waters takes the stage, LIVE at the Hochstein Performance Hall!
“Kate Clinton: All Fracked Up”
April 13, 2012
Hochstein Performance Hall
“Join Kate for her 2012 All Fracked Up Tour. Kate’s hyperbolic fracking method shakes the bedrock of the comedy mother lode with seismic aftershocks of laughter. She vents about global weirding. Tosses an occu-pie in the face of banksters. Glitter-bombs presidential politics. Spelunks some LGBT schist. Mud will be flung. Warning: dikes could be in danger of collapse. It’s a blast! She’s a gas! And after – Kate always cleans up her own fracking mess!”
