Pageant: The Beauty Contest
 

Devised, written and designed by Keith Lovegrove

'The event is being filmed, so the faux leopard-skin carpet of the club is covered with cables, held down with black electrical tape, like a dozen flattened snakes.'

​

'Pageant' celebrates the culture of the beauty contest, from the well- known spectacles of Miss World and Mr Universe to the flamboyance of Alternative Miss World and sub-culture contests such as Miss Nude UK.

​

"Lavishly illustrated... eye popping."
