Highlights
- Calypso Cabaret - CALYPSO-performers are THAI TRANSGENDER ARTISTS. What we do on stage is unique. We do not just dance, do not just parade costumes and decorations. Our presence on stage is a SHOW OF INDIVIDUAL TALENTS , a whole language by its own. A meticulous balance of exclusive choreography featuring the individuals to their very best of abilities and the concept of highly valued class, style and taste.We lip-sync through 16 various performances, ranging from all-time favourite classics to up-beat and in-trend show tunes, suitable to open-minded audiences of all ages and nationalities. We engage BODY AND SOUL to this production and it has nothing and yet everything to do with being TRANSGENDER, because of who we are and what we do, is only what we, CALYPSO, can do.

Great experience. However the pickup... - <p>Great experience. However the pickup time was really early, and only upon arrival did I realise that the additional time was for us to walk around the area and to have dinner. Would be good to include this tidbit in the itinerary information I was indeed wondering why they needed to pick me up so early.</p>
<p>That said, the cabaret show was very interesting and enjoyable. Not the best I've ever seen, but then I'm comparing it to to the Moulin Rouge in Paris, so that may not be fair. But if you have nothing to do in the evening, I don't see any harm in giving this a go.</p>

The cabaret show was fun. You only... - <p>The cabaret show was fun. You only get a very tiny table or none at all so i recommend eating in nearby restaurants before going inside. They offer free drink so you can have an after meal tea or coffee while enjoying the show. It is fun but they are ao eager for tips after the show for photo op</p>

Cabaret Show - NOT a must see. - First time seeing the ladyboy show. It was ok. Although I have absolutely no musical talent I like trip advisor because it has been so helpful so wanted to write this for others.
If you have to travel any distance say further than 10 mins - I would not bother with this Show. You could probably see just as good at your local high school.
To be fair you have to get into the vibe and understand this is not Moulin Rouge - ( and I am sure the performers don’t get paid as much as the MR performers either) but even with that in mind - some of the performances are not saved by glitz and glamour and really need improvement to keep your interest particularly considering people are paying to see the show.
That being said - some of the ladyboy performers are absolutely stunning and the seating is excellent

Very poor choreographic show, lacking in originality and quality, all the songs are in playback. No burlesque types - If a Bangkok show becomes just a cheap American imitation, you will be very disappointed.
The choreography was also very obvious.

The idea is great, you get picked up... - <p>The idea is great, you get picked up and transported back to hotel, the show to the ticket includes a drink/coffee etc. Venue is ok/great too, there is some time before the show to check out open-air shopping, food trucks etc. which is quite nice, however the show itself is not worth going to..</p>
<p>There were some / up to 10 performances, perhaps if I am too generous 3 were barely ok, the rest was too boring, no fun at all.</p>
<p>I knew / sensed not to expect too much from the performances, at the same time this was such a great idea in theory and I really look forward to this evening but was really disappointed with the performances.</p>
