BJ’S WHITE SWAN

08/09/12: Having passed many a night of my misspent youth at the White Swan, it’s always a joy to go back and see how the old gurl has changed (she hasn’t), catch some ‘fab cab’ and chase some hot East End totty.

So last Saturday we hopped on the DLR to Limehouse and arrived just before the witching hour, by which time the place is packed, as if some well synched bio clock has signalled all the East End gays to hatch at the same time for a brief courtship.

Just after midnight the cabaret fanfare beckoned us to the stage for one the scene’s hardest working acts, the fabulous Titti La Camp. As she opened her well worn drag bag, out tumbled Wicked, Dolly, Susan, Olivia and more. Bread was thrown, wrists slashed and boy persona resumed during ‘My Way’.

And I have to say, after almost 20 years of watching Titti’s act, I never tire of her mime mastery and comic timing… Truly one of the greats.
