Miss Brexit
MISS BREXIT is a satirical musical parody of a Miss Universe pageant, showcasing the migrant experience in the UK. Four contestants from different European places will go through several challenges to prove they can fully assimilate, hosted by a flamboyant and unforgiving MC. It was co-devised using the real stories of all the cast members, combined with satire, multilingual songs and extravagant costumes. The meaning behind the show is the universal theme of identity, which is the key element that bridges both realities an inch closer. MISS BREXIT is also the debut production of our company Maria Who?, and in a wider perspective we aim to create theatre that is written through the lens of migrants, rather than being portrayed as stereotypes. Creating a platform for new theatre, representing multiculturality, celebrating diversity and new collaborations.
