Abstract

Miss Brexit is a satirical theatre project, a parody of a Miss Universe beauty pageant. In this show, we will meet five contestants from different European places (Italy, Portugal, Spain, and Switzerland). These contestants will have to go through several challenges orchestrated by a flamboyant and unforgiving MC. They will need to demonstrate their knowledge of Great British culture, their use of Great British manners and their admiration for Great British greatness to win their leave to remain, their British passport. The audience will get to know them, through personal stories and audience interaction, after which they will eliminate the less favourite Miss. Because in the end, only one, only the winner will become... Miss Brexit.
