She began her career as an original member of the long-running Les Girls cabaret show. Carlotta\, a transgender person\, rose through the ranks of the show to eventually become the show’s compere and its most famous member. Les Girls and Carlotta soon became must-see attractions for visitors to Sydney and the show was popular with visiting international celebrities. The show continued in the Les Girls building until 1993\, the Les Girls show went on-the-road\, touring Australia\, which inspired the film “Priscilla Queen of the Desert”. \nCarlotta was featured in the soap opera Number 96 in 1973 as Robyn Ross\, the new girlfriend of Arnold Feather. In the story it was soon revealed that Robyn was in fact a transsexual showgirl\, a revelation that led to the character’s quick departure from the show. To preserve the shock ending to this storyline the true identity of Robyn’s portrayer was kept secret from all but a few central cast and crew members of the series\, her scenes were shot on a closed set\, and Carlotta was credited as “Carolle Lea”. \nCarlotta’s sex-change operation in the early 1970s was not the first such procedure in Australia\, but due to her celebrity status it became the first to receive publicity there. \nFrom 1997\, Carlotta has been a regular panelist on the discussion program Beauty and the Beast. \nIn 2005\, she featured in her own half a million dollar stage production\, “Carlotta’s KingsX”\, presented at the Big Top\, Luna Park\, Sydney. Produced by Brett Elliott and Richard Bernardo\, the 90 minute show delivered classic storytelling\, stand up comedy\, lavish costumes\, and team of ‘Les Girls’ dance performances throughout. Supported by massive 6x22m video backdrop\, video content presented the story of Kings Cross collated from footage supplied by ABC\, Channel Seven and Channel Nine. \nCarlotta regularly features at all sorts of events and gala premieres\, including Sydney’s Mardi Gras. \nMichael Griffiths\nPerforming Arts (WAAPA) with a Bachelor in Music Theatre in 1999 and has a Diploma in Music Composition. Michael is currently performing in Sydney in Jersey Boys. Before this Michael toured Australia and New Zealand in Priscilla Queen of the Desert. Michael performed in the Australian and Japanese tour of We Will Rock You!\, appeared in the original Australian cast of Shout! and was in the original workshop for the new Australian musical Prodigal.
