The First Annual Miss deMeanor Beauty Pagent
July 1972

 

Vintage poster for a Nocturnal Dream Show by the fabulous Cockettes of San Francisco: The First Annual Miss deMeanor Beauty Pagent

 

For the final show the Cockettes team up with Lady Divine for a hilarious beauty and talent competition with contestants such as Miss Conception, Miss Shapen, Miss Used and Miss Carriage who perform their unique talents. The event hits a crescendo when things turn from the benign performance of imitating a gold fish to Divine's violent criminal rant where she confesses to eating 5 lbs of raw sugar a day and to the Sharon Tate killings. All hell breaks loose as the girls scuffle for the crown.
