Dutch Thai experiences with buidling a happy/gay theater cafe/bar in Thailand's Patong Beach on Phuket. An adventure in which we will try to create a home a way from home, where foreigners ("farang" in Thai) and Thai alike, will feel at home and enjoy making decent fun together. The Backstage, small as it is, will organise or facilitate all kinds of entertainment, life music, lipsync shows, karaoke, cabaret, stand-up-comedy, whatever cusotmers or we come up with ;-)

Right: Our friends from My Way cabaret group arrive on a surprise visit to congratulate us with our first step on the Phuket Patong gay scene ... they said they would come back after work, and they did to our delight and performed some excellent numbers, which also gave us the chance to really testdrive our soundsystem for lipsing performance (and that turned out to be above expectations!). On the right, giving me the flowers, Rin, very dear friend of me/ours (picture taken by Kik)
