Pageant: The Musical, a beauty pageant-based show featuring six contestants (all played by men in drag), opens at Circuit Playhouse this weekend.
In the show, the contestants are competing for the title of Miss Glamouresse in the categories of best swimsuit, talent, gown, and spokesmodel, and since the judges are selected from the audience, no two performances are the same.
Pageant runs March 11th through April 9th, but there will be a special preview show on Thursday, March 10th benefitting the Memphis Gay & Lesbian Community Center’s youth services programming.
Tickets to that fundraising performance are $45, and that includes a cocktail hour reception from 7 to 8 p.m. The show begins at 8 p.m. that night. For tickets to that performance, go here.
