John Waters To Take Lennon Through A Glass Onion On East Coast Australian Tour

John Waters and Stewart D’Arrietta will take the New York Production of their John Lennon music masterpiece ‘Lennon: Looking Through A Glass Onion’ on an East Coast Australian tour from September.

Waters and D’Arrietta have been performing ‘Lennon: Through A Glass Onion’ since 1992. That is longer than John Lennon ever performed. The first show was a small pub gig at the Tilbury Hotel in Sydney’s Woolloomooloo.

Since then they have taken around Australia, the world and New York City where they made their off-Broadway debut and won the approval of Yoko Ono.

John Waters said, “To be embraced by New Yorkers as we were from October to January, this was a great reward for all of us who worked so hard to get our show there, at the Union Theatre. It truly felt as though Glass Onion had in fact given the city what it needed, to reconcile their own sense of loss of a much loved ‘son’, as John Lennon came to be. Night after night, our audiences stood to acknowledge us, and it doesn’t get much better than that.”
