This is a story about a middle class person trying to have a nice night out at a theatre show they heard about on some vaguely credible mailing list. Sounds fairly pedestrian, but there is a twist: the middle class person is you.

Your friends have stood you up — you are slightly peeved as you’ve worn your new Clergerie boots to show off, and you are concerned they might pinch; you’ll be limping around for nothing. Let’s hope there is someone interesting enough there to make it worth your while.

‘You Beauty’, is a meta exploration of class and identity. With her signature humour and tongue firmly in cheek, Mish Grigor has written a performance in a book about an actual theatre show entitled ‘Class Act’, which was in part a response to the film Musical ‘My Fair Lady’, which itself was adapted from ‘Pygmalion’, by George Bernard Shaw. Quite a genealogy, but don’t worry, no one is wearing a bonnet.
