Pink Floyd rocker and Hamptons habitué Roger Waters will face some angry picketers outside the Bay Street Theater in Sag Harbor, N.Y., on Friday night.

The protest is being organized by pro-Israel groups.

Waters has for years backed the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement against Israel to oppose the nation’s “occupation of the West Bank.”

The Simon Wiesenthal Center said in a blistering statement on Tuesday: “Roger Waters is an entertainer who hates the Jewish state of Israel,” and asked fans to give him “the reception he deserves: an empty hall.” The group urged followers to “stand in solidarity . . . outside of the theater.”

The show is part of G.E. Smith’s “Portraits” series.
