Laura Trenerry & Patrick Dwyer – The Pageant

Uncategorized

Laura Trenerry and Patrick Dwyer from the comedy duo The Beryls join us to discuss their new show, The Pageant.

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 Melbourne – it’s your turn.

The Pageant is “the beauty pageant to end all beauty pageants” and is a pageant celebrating the power of pageantry because if there’s one thing former pageant darling Victoria Beauvoir knows, there’s no such thing as too much pageantry. Victoria is joined by her long-term devotee Roger Seahorse in this children’s beauty pageant that is most definitely not for children.

This narratively driven, immersive sketch show casts the audience as contestants and pushy showbiz parents as they satirise the superficiality of beauty standards. Leave your name, age and gender identity at the door because The Pageant is a world unto itself.
