FORESTBURGH – Forestburgh Playhouse, under the leadership of Producing Artistic Director Franklin Trapp, proudly presents Pageant The Musical from July 5 through 17 on the Playhouse Mainstage.

Directed by Roque Berlanga, choreographed by Deb Leamy, with music direction by Spencer Stern, the cast of Pageant features Andrew Cuccaro, John Ryan Del Bosque, Anthony DaSilva, Caleb Funk, Anthony Mejia, Lee Price and Edward Staudenmayer.

“Laughter, fun, comedy and camp are the best medicines around, and we are thrilled to bring just that to our mainstage with Pageant the Musical,” said Franklin Trapp. “What could be more fun than song, dance, and drag? The excitement is brewing, and I am sure our audiences will choose the very best next Miss Glamouresse!”

The Miss Glamouresse Pageant is coming to the Forestburgh Playhouse! Like no beauty pageant you’ve ever seen before, 6 gorgeous contestants (all played by men) vying for the title compete in swimsuit, talent, evening gown, and spokesmodel categories. This hilariously fun musical is Miss America meets Kinky Boots. Even better, audiences pick the winner! No performance is ever the same…and the suspense is real!
