British comedian Eddie Izzard arrives in Australia for the first time in eight years this month to perform the local leg of his stand-up show Stripped.
As the title suggests, this latest show sees the funnyman stripped of much of his usual feminine accoutrement — audiences will be greeted by a decidedly blokier Izzard than previous shows, where outfits included bustiers, short skirts and six-inch high heels.
"I am a transvestite, and I have that freedom, and that's great. But I'm also someone who doesn't always have to be a transvestite," Izzard told the Star Observer down the line from Los Angeles.
