Overview

  • The performance debuted on July 5 at Vigo’s Maritime Station and Cangas’s Maritime Station as part of the Mostra Internacional de Teatro de Cangas.
  • Ana Esmith’s alter ego Miss Beige invited attendees to wear beige clothing and carry hammers while forming a silent circle in the port gardens.
  • The silent gathering transitioned into a bagpipe-led dance before participants, led by Miss Beige, processed slowly toward the port.
  • The monochrome live piece employs color symbolism and audience engagement to critique the tyranny of female beauty standards and digital image filters.
  • With over 72,000 Instagram followers, Miss Beige extends the critique online and generates ongoing discussion about nonsexualized feminist representation.
