(9:00 p.m., The Eagle Portland, 835 N Lombard. 21+) Del-icious Writer-comic Del Shores sinks his teeth into Sordid one-man show Whether you know him for his work as a scribe on television shows like Dharma & Greg and Queer As Folk, his raw stand-up routines or his cult-classic empire Sordid Lives, Del Shores is nothing if not unforgettable. The writer-director-producer has earned a following for being un abashedly brash, among other things. Shores unleashes his pop culture missives at Red Cap Garage Friday, November 18 as part of a new one-man show, Del Shores' Sordid Confessions. Shores’career skyrocketed with the success of his 1987 play Daddy's Dyin (Who's Got the Will?) and subsequent film adaptation. Perhaps best known for his 1996 play Sordid Lives, also made into a movie, and later a Logo TV series, Shores scooped up a sizable LGBTQ_fan base with characters like Earl “Brother Boy” Ingram—an institutionalized cross-dressing gay—and his mother Peggy, played on the small screen by late Golden Girls icon Rue McClanahan. For his Portland date (rescheduled from last August), expect 75 hysterical minutes tracing his “slut years” through the Sordid whirl wind, delivered with a pinch of Shores’ deceptive Texan charm. “Look, I got off Paxil,” he says of the monologue. “Now I’m bitter, somewhat mean and I don’t give a shit anymore.” Charmed, we’re sure.
