Your hostess will be the sordid Sister Bella de Ball, who suggests you come as your favorite character from the flick, Sordid Lives.

What’s your favorite line from the Sordid Lives movie? Is it—”Can you see my pussy now?” or perhaps, “I never would have quit smokin if I’da know my sister was gonna die.”? Whatever it may be (and there are plenty of classic lines in this black comedy about white trash) you will get your chance to act out your favorite character or just be entertained by some of them. Metro City Bar & Artfull Circle Theatre will present “SORDID LIVE!—a Sordid Lives Look-a-like Contest.” The show is a benefit for Equality California to be held at Metro City Bar on Market and 16th Streets, on May 26 at 8:30 pm. This event will be based on the movie (from the play), Sordid Lives, starring Olivia Newton-John, Delta Burke, Leslie Jordan, Beau Bridges, Bonnie Bedelia, Ann Walker, Beth Grant, and a host of others.

Your hostess will be the sordid Sister Bella de Ball, featuring guest performances byTrauma Flintstone, Mark Sargent aka Ethel Merman, Deana Dawn of Spurs ‘n Fur fame, and Novice Sister Holly Lewya. Sister Bella suggests you come as your favorite character from the flick. Who will that be? Latrelle? Sissy? LaVonda? Noleta? Juanita Bartlette? GW Nethercot? Ty? “Put on your trashiest outfit for an evening of sordid performances, prizes, and surprises,” says Sister Bella—all to benefit same-sex marriage and Equality California!” “What will them gay homos want next? Marrying an animal??! I mean, good Lord, Louisa-Rae-Mae!” says the buck-toothed, inbred, illiterate pastor’s fifth wife.

There will be posters and DVDs signed by writer/director Del Shores and a whole lot of other really nice items to win. It will surely be the social event of the season—at least among the trailer park set! They are predicting a practically tornado-free evening.

There will also be a not-so-silent auction for some very coveted and sordid items, in addition to fabulous raffle packages chock full of prizes based on Sordid characters such as: The Del Shores Signed & Sordid Package (signed movie posters, DVDs, and CDs by Shores himself), Bitsy Mae’s Prison Trash Blues Package, Noleta’s Newly Single Package, LaVonda’s Liberation Package, and Brother Boy’s Bustin’ Out Package.

And for the Sordidly challenged who may not be up to speed on this topic, or if you are a Del Shores groupie or a Sordid Wannabe, be sure to check out the Sordid Lives official web site for the scoop at sordidlives.com.

So, my Sordid readers, come dressed to kill, or at least to maim! You simply cannot miss this!!!
