Eddie Izzard is giving Hollywood stardom a rest while he returns to touring his stand-up. He talks to Gavin Allen about strategic transvestitism and the potential of arena comedy.

EDDIE Izzard has been in 'boy mode' so long that America can hardly believe he's a ->-bleeped-<-.

While cultivating his film and TV career in Los Angeles he made the decision to tone down his wardrobe, and the strategy has served him well.

He landed the lead role in HBO series The Riches, as well as film roles alongside the likes of Tom Cruise in Valkyrie.
