Physique & Stage Presence

This event is open to the public and will take place on Friday evening, May 23. Contestants will be given specific assembly time and location at the Thursday orientation.

The judges score your performance on stage as part of your Personal Image score.

The purpose of this event is for International Mr Bootblack contestants to show off your stage presence and public speaking ability to the judges and the audience.

For your first appearance, you will walk on stage as your name is announced in numerical order, take up your position, and remain there until all Contestants are on the stage with you. All Contestants will then exit the stage.

After the International Mr Leather contestants appear on stage for the physique portion of their contest, all contestants will be brought back on stage a final time. This will end the event.

These general guidelines may change, but are presented here to give you an idea of the simple staging. Specific staging instructions will be given at the stage rehearsal.

Contestants are guided by staff to the event, prepared by staff prior to walking on stage, and met by staff upon exiting the stage.

There is no requirement for your attire and you should choose something that you feel comfortable and confident in. Contestants may change between introductions and the final presentation of all contestants but changes of attire are not expected or required.
