THE ST. PETERSBURG LITTLE THEATRE/WOODSON MUSEUM REMEMBER BLACK HISTORY
On February 21, 2010 the St. Petersburg Little Theatre, in cooperation with the Dr. Carter G. Woodson African American Museum, will participate in Black History month by remembering a legacy, The Miss Black St. Petersburg Pageant. The first ever Miss Black St. Petersburg pageant took place on May 31, 1975. Almost 35 years to the date, the St. Petersburg Little Theatre will be resurrecting and showcasing a new modern beauty pageant, “My Black Is Beautiful” in celebration of Black History Month. The pageant is a way to reach our youth and educate them about the activities and opportunities available to them at the theatre and the Woodson Museum. It will also give the contestants an opportunity to showcase their talent and abilities in an effort to win the title. The contestants will learn professional and personal etiquette and poise. They will take workshops on theatre, monologues and public speaking, and much more.

Registration is $25.00 at the St. Petersburg Little Theatre (4025 31st Street S; 727-866-1973) and at the Woodson Museum (2240 Ninth Ave S; 727-323-1104). Parents must be present to register.
