Queen of the Whole Universe - A VERY QUEER BEAUTY PAGEANT
Rocky Horror And Nancy Boys Join The 2010 Celebration!
The 2010 beauty pageant with a difference, for some couldn’t get any more glamorous; but trust organizers Queen of the Whole Universe 2010, are out to prove those people wrong – with news of two guest performers involved in this year’s ceremony on November 6th.
The cast of The Rocky Horror Picture Show will be performing before the crowning of this year’s “Queen of the Whole Universe”. As they embark on a season at the Civic Theatre in Auckland on November 9th, the performers take to the ASB Theatre stage to perform one of the classics from this celebrated musical!
QWU Creative Director Jonathan Smith speaks highly of this collaborative effort: “There is great synergy between the two shows so it is fabulous that we are able to work together. This is very exciting for me and the QWU cast and crew, what an amazing way to end the Auckland show.”
The second guest performers at this event come in the form of the very talented all-male dance group “Nancy Boys”, who individually have recently finished working on the World of Wearable Arts in Wellington. Jesse, Daniel, Adam and Duncan will perform a piece based broadly around the concept of the musical Jersey Boys.
With founder Jesse Wikiriwhi having performed with the likes of Footnote Dance, Candy Lane and Dancers and Okareka Dance Company, expect something very special from the “Nancies” this year.
