With semi-autobiographical books like Hors of Lost Atlantis, actor, screenwriter, playwright, and drag queen, Charles Bush has fine-tuned the recipe for adding drag to your theatrical production to turn it into a comedy hit.

Now, Charles Bush is finally looking back on his amazing life in theater and drag in his new

autobiography, Leading Lady, a memoir of a most unusual boy.

In the new book, Charles pulls you in as he shares his wild stories of his deep friendships

and encounters with some of the biggest divas in entertainment,

including Joan Rivers, Liza Minnelli, and Julie Andrews.

Today, the legendary Charles Bush joins us to talk about the world's first ugly movie star,

working with Boy George on Taboo, the musical, and the painful loss of his mother Gertie

at the young age of seven.
