New Times
Rating: 2.5/4 --
Catania and Ignacio's film works best on the level of straightforward biography told through the reminiscences of friends, family, members of Busch's Lost-in-Limbo theatrical troupe and, best of all, Busch himself.
TV Guide
Rating: 3/4 --
Busch's own personality, and the way the directors use the director/playwright's own dialogue and delivery to illustrate aspects of his life, give this documentary a resonance and playfulness missing in all too many bio pics.
Variety
Rating: 3/5 --
Charles Busch, the 1980's fringe-theater fixture, celebrated playwright, novelist, stage director and drag performer, who in recent years has made the jump to film as well, can now add 'subject of documentary' to his formidable list of accomplishments.
New York Times
Rating: 3/5 --
An affectionate tribute to the drag artist who has been a Manhattan institution for more than 20 years.

Product Description:
Charles Busch's career as a star of both stage and screen is recalled in this warm documentary about the talented drag artist. A true gay icon, Busch has enjoyed considerable success both on and off Broadway in productions such as DIE MOMMIE DIE! and VAMPIRE LESBIANS OF SODOM. THE LADY IN QUESTION IS CHARLES BUSCH also touches on broader topics, such as gender roles in the performing arts and notions of success and failure.
