This Off-Broadway musical spoof is one of the rowdiest farces ever staged. "Pageant" pits six beauty queens against each other in the Glamouresse annual extravaganza. Miss Texas, Miss Great Plains, Miss Deep South, Miss Industrial Northeast, Miss West Coast and Miss Bible Belt, sing, dance and camp it up in gowns and bathing suits. A hilarious talent contest is equaled only by the zany "spokesmodel" event which requires them to hawk the sponsor's outrageous cosmetics. While the girls swirl around the charming host, judges from the audience decide who will be Miss Glamouresse. Linda Wielkotz will direct and Charles Santoro will musical direct the show, with book and lyrics by Bill Russell and Frank Kelly. Music by Albert Evans and conceived by Robert Longbottom.
