Master of the (Miss) Universe

What do Venezuela, the Philippines and most gay men you know have in common? Beauty Pageant Fever!! Fillipino gay performance artist Noël Alumit returns to Boston with a backhanded tribute to the glamorous opening numbers, rigged-yet-suspenseful voting, humiliating swimsuit defeats, obscure “talents”, obscene splashes of sexism and imperialism, and of course, the infamous final question… And yes, somebody wins a tiara. Anne Etue directs.

“Best Bet” raves Los Angeles Times.

There is an additional performance on Sunday, Sept. 21 at 7pm.

Part of the Out on the Edge festival.
