Backcomb that big hair, glue on the giant lashes and prepare to snatch that crown. Your hosts Victoria Beauvoir and Roger Seahorse are on a mission to bring children’s beauty pageants to every Australian town and Bayside - it’s your turn.
Award-winning comedy duo The Beryls bring their interactive, unhinged, cracking character comedy to Bayside. The Pageant is a satirical and darkly funny play set at a children’s beauty pageant that goes terribly wrong. Featuring physical comedy, 80s inspired dance moves and original songs, The Pageant casts the audience as the contestants and pushy showbiz parents in this surprising and hilarious hour.
So bring along some nibbles and drinks, and get ready for a great night of comedy.
