Time to get your glam on as the Lady boys are back in town and celebrating turning ‘21’ with The Greatest Showgirls Tour 2019! 

Always a highlight of my social calendar this year will dazzle as The Lady boys of Bangkok transform into 16 of the most glamourous showgirls, adorned with crystals and sequins galore, to showcase tributes to some of our favourite divas including Kylie, Beyonce, J-Lo, Madonna, Whitney Houston and Rihanna. 

Dreams will be stirred as audiences are served a smorgasbord of routines – from M People to Little Mix to the Pussycat Dolls. And this year the dazzling cast are joining by the UK’s only dwarf drag queen, Jamie John. 

Always a night to dazzle and sparkle, this year’s line-up of routines are set to have me dancing and singing the night away as we are transported into this glamorous world, filled with extravagant costumes and dazzling routines, with lots of giggles too!

Tour promoter Binky Beaumont can’t wait to see the Lady boys ‘come of age’ in this latest production. 

He said: “When artistic director Philip Gandey opened The Lady Boys of Bangkok at the Edinburgh Fringe in 1998, the success of the show was mind-blowing. After a few amazing years, demand was really high from other cities for us to bring this one-of-a-kind production to them as well. 

“For its 21st year we are bringing audiences a show that is even more glitzy and glamourous, and we even have four new cast members! Every year there is a new theme, and ‘The Greatest Showgirls Tour’ allows us to celebrate our favourite divas.” 

The Lady Boys wear over 400 impressive costumes in the show, and a full-time seamstress is employed to keep them all in check. But the Lady Boys of Bangkok isn’t all just about glamour. There’s side-splitting comedy, and plenty of audience participation. 

With more songs and big-scale musical production numbers than you could point a perfumed glove at, The Lady Boys of Bangkok adds a splash of colour to the black-and-white normality of everyday life. And the entertainment of The Greatest Showgirls Tour soars from start to finish, with its complete celebration of individuality and pride. 

Having been a regular attendee for years now I cannot wait to once again party the night away at the hottest ticket in town, The Ladyboys of Bangkok!
