The Lady Boys of Bangkok Brighton
Loaded with more glamour, fun and surprises than ever before Brighton's favourite cabaret party night - the LADY BOYS OF BANGKOK- returns to the BRIGHTON FESTIVAL FRINGE to celebrate their record-breaking tenth successive UK touring season with a spectacular new production - DEVILS AND ANGELS.
Hotter than Hades with a galaxy of heavenly bodies, it's a paradise of glittering stylish cabaret fun and glamour performed by 16 of the world's most stunningly beautiful representatives of the Third Sex (Kathoey) - in the unique ambiance of The SABAI PAVILION, Victoria Gardens, Grand Parade, Brighton from Friday 2nd May to Sunday 1st June
DEVILS AND ANGELS - an ecstasy of non-stop hits from the Spice Girls tribute to Broadway show stoppers from Grease to Moulin Rouge. From fabulous feathers to raunchy disco from Bassey to Beyonce and beyond…the fun just keeps rolling on. Painstakingly immaculate make-up… hundreds of to-die-for costumes… sparkling new choreography - the Lady Boys of Bangkok are in bubbling champagne form.
For the past five years the top sell-out show at the world's largest arts festival - the Edinburgh Fringe - and already acclaimed as "The best party-night out in town" in five major British cities, the tour is being extended this year to include seasons in two additional cities - Derby and Leeds.
