It’s Scentsational!
We’re inviting you to experience a final encore of John Waters’ Polyester in glorious Odorama!
Francine Fishpaw seems to have it all: a suburban home, a successful husband, and a picture-perfect family. But behind closed doors, her life is falling apart. Her spouse is running a sleazy business, her children are out of control, and scandal lurks around every corner. As Francine’s world spirals into chaos, a mysterious stranger offers a chance at romance…and maybe redemption.
Polyester is a Waters-esque send-up of melodrama, packed with outrageous humor and sensory surprises. Make sure to get to the screening early and grab your scratch-and-sniff cards to get the full experience!
