.‘l. J r’ 5 5'83. -l a ~=. a We all want to make the world better place, and LGBT Youth Scotland is doing its bit by appealing for responses to an online survey in a bid to develop and improve facilities and resources for the gay youth community in your area. The organisation’s Grace Cardozo says: ‘One of the things that LGBT Youth Scotland wants to do is to set up groups and activities for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender young people all around Scotland, as at the moment there are hardly any services specifically set up for LGBT people. We need your help to change this.’
They’ve developed an online survey aimed at LGBT people aged under 26 in the Dumfries and Galloway, Forth Valley, Grampian and Tayside areas. It takes about ten minutes to complete, is completely confidential, and could help change things in your area, right now. Go to www.lgbtyouth.org.uk for more details. (Gareth Davies)

DRAG COMEDY SASSY STRYKER & TITTY LE CAMP The Stand, Edinburgh, Tue 1 Feb; the Stand, Glasgow, Wed 2 Feb
No tongue action for me today. Not even a taste of it. I blame this magazine for such an unfounded expectation. Having read a previous List review about Sassy Stryker - ‘[Sassy] has pizzazz and an ability to do amazing things with her tongue‘ - I’m primed and ready for the stereotypical retorts expected from a well-heeled member of the drag queen scene. Allan Rogers, Sassy's sedate alter ego, it seems, is a (pleasant) departure from the Lily Savage-type persona.
Charming and utterly self-effacing, Rogers emanates something of a Priscilla, Queen of the Desert-type vibe. ‘I’m caricature drag, not a transvestite act; Sassy’s a singing, piss-taking cartoon to be enjoyed,’ says Rogers. ‘Right now, with the clothes off, I’m just Allan; when I put on Sassy’s costume, I totally become her; it’s larger than life.‘
On the drag scene for 12 years, Rogers was first inspired by time spent living with a crew of drag queens in Sydney. Edinburgh offered Rogers the stage for his first drag outing proper in 1992 and over the years - via hen night, the gay scene and comedy club gigs - Sassy Stryker was formed in all her seven-foot glitz and glory. Now, having toured over 200 drag venues around Britain, appeared as part of London's drag fraternity on a special edition of The Weakest Link, starred in a documentary - Channel 4’s The Other Side — and tried his hand at travel writing for OX, it’s clear that Rogers, and his other self, like to mix it up a bit.
An explanation, perhaps, for his co-act on this tour, Titty le Camp. ‘Titty’s a good friend of mine. The two acts should work together well because they’re very different. Her act is more of a mime show, a really black sort of comedy. It’s going to be good. Scotland’s where I started doing cabaret and I can’t wait to be back.’ (Anna Millar)
