The cross-dressing entertainer plays a host of oddball characters in his one-man/woman show

Clothes make the man. Jonny Woo, a striking and poised young man with clear green eyes and cropped blond hair sits across from me in Groucho's, his olive-coloured designer jacket shimmering with good taste. Two giant carrier bags bulge with wigs and heels. He's in rehearsal for his upcoming show, ->-bleeped-<-got, in which he plays a host of characters using five costume changes and interactive digital screens.

A sophisticated and popular performance artist, Woo is at the top of his cross-dressing game. Like a superhero, he can magically transform himself into an exotic creature who mixes Rabelasian humour, social commentary, hilarious high jinks and an arch and prescient consciousness.
