The Calypso Cabaret offers you an evening of laughter, dazzling lights, beautiful ‘women’ and a lot of funs. Each night more than 50 performers will amaze you with a spectacle that would not be out of place any where in the world.
The nightly performances promise to thrill, excite and entertain patrons of all ages. Yes, this means you can bring the kids!
A night out at Calypso cabaret provides for a fun experience and a good break from Bangkok city sightseeing. Transgender artists or “ladyboys”, some of them so beautiful that it is easy to forget that they are not real girls, perform a Las Vegas style show with lots of glitz and glamour, hair pieces and ostrich feathers.
Watch the ladyboys wearing beautiful gowns and costumes perform a series of acts and dances on a large stage.
The stepped seating of the air conditioned theater allows everyone a good view of the stage. The red interior with small tables with lamps reminds of the Parisian cabarets of a previous era.
The show featuring 70 performers performing over a dozen acts takes about 1½ hours. The Calypso theater is located at Asiatique, a riverside shopping, dining and entertainment complex easily accessible by Chao Phraya river boat.
The acts are a good mix of drama, comedy, modern and traditional music. Some of them are designed to appeal to nationalities in the audience like the Chinese and Korean acts, while there is meaning in others, like the “Free your mind” act.
Among the acts are “The King” Elvis Presley, a lovely Chinese ballad, a very energetic Beyoncé, Lady Gaga accompanied by violin music, the En Vogue song Free your mind, a Japanese song called Geisha, Marilyn Monroe, All that Jazz and Arirang, a Korean folk song with the performers wearing beautiful and colorful traditional Korean dresses.
The show ends with the Grand Finale, where all performers appear on stage in gowns and tails. After the show the performers line up near the exit where you can take your photo with them and give a tip if you want.
It’s said : If you’ve seen one , you ’ve seen them all. Well if you travel to Thailand and stay in Bangkok, plan to see our show. It will give you an unseen and unheard-of experience.
The revival of the art of entertainment!
