Do the Lady Boys of Bangkok light your fire?

Chances are you haven't come across the Lady Boys of Bangkok in the
arts pages of national newspapers. But the show was one of the big
sellers at the Edinburgh Fringe, and has been for years. Back in May
it was also a hit at the Brighton Festival Fringe, where it's also a
regular visitor. And those are just two stops on its nationwide tour
that lasts until Christmas.

By chance, the Lady Boys were my introduction to Edinburgh. My
colleague Clifford Bishop (whom I call Culture Boy), writing for the
Independent on Sunday, had already been at the festival for a week, by
which time he'd had enough of dance and physical theatre and needed a
break. "I got tickets to the Lady Boys of Bangkok," he said. "Want
one?"
