9/18/2012

After last year’s sold out show with the Southern Fried Chicks, Etta May is back with her new show, Etta May’s White Trash Diary.  She will perform in the Ronald and Lynda Nutt Theatre, Friday, October 5 at 8 pm. Tickets are $15-$30 and may be purchased at www.claytonartscenter.com or by calling the Box Office at 865-981-8590.

White Trash Diary is the hilarious new one-woman show from the princess of polyester, the goddess of trailer parks everywhere. Ripped directly from the life story of one of America’s funniest women, it’s a night of side-splitting laughter!  

Etta May is also a headline comic on CMT’s “CMT Comedy Stage” which is the second highest rated show in CMT history.
