Del Shores: writer, comedian, and the creator of SORDID LIVES

returns to New Orleans for one night only!

Thursday, September 10 at NOCCA, 2800 Chartres Street, 7:30pm

 

Del Shores, the acclaimed writer/director/producer for theatre, television, and film, returns to New Orleans for a one-night-only performance of his hilarious one-man show DEL SHORES: MY SORDID LIFE. The performance will take place on Thursday, September 10, at 7:30pm at the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts, 2800 Chartres Street. Tickets are available online at www.NOCCA.com or at the door.

 

Shores is best known for SORDID LIVES (play, film, TV series), DADDY’S DYIN’ (WHO’S GOT THE WILL?) (play, film), and his controversial play SOUTHERN BAPTIST SISSIES. In DEL SHORES: MY SORDID LIFE, Shores shares the real-life stories that inspired those and other writings.

 

In addition to the performance, DEL SHORES: MY SORDID LIFE will feature a silent auction that’s perfect for TV and film buffs. Featured items include: an autographed set of Shores' plays (all six!); the pilot script for SORDID LIVES: THE SERIES, autographed by entire cast and Del Shores; an autographed copy of the film, SORDID LIVES; and a gift certificate for SORDID LIVES: THE SERIES DVD, Collector's Edition, signed by Shores and the series’ star Jason Dottley, which will be shipped to the winner upon its release on October 13th.

 

General admission tickets to this spectacular night are $25, and VIP tickets are available for $50. VIP tickets offer premium seating and a very special meet-and-greet with Shores after the show where refreshments will be served.

 

DEL SHORES: MY SORDID LIFE is produced by Dottley, who stars as “Ty” in SORDID LIVES: THE SERIES and who is also Shores’ husband. The couple remains one of the 18,000 legally married same-sex couples in California.

 

DEL SHORES: MY SORDID LIFE will play one night only — Thursday, September 10 — at NOCCA, 2800 Chartres Street in New Orleans’ historic Faubourg Marigny. VIP tickets, which include a meet-and-greet with Mr. Shores after the performance, are $50; general admission tickets are $25. Both can be purchased at NOCCA.com, or at the door.
