IRONY IN A BOX

Two months since L.A. burlesque troupe Devil's Playground first wowed nerdy audience members as theytook on the characters of Star Wars (Episodes IV-VI).

Since then, a lot has happened. They've moved to the Music Box in Hollywood & with the extra space they've transformed the show into an experience, complete with additional characters, revamped costumes and new sets.

As well as the usual suspects: Slave Leia, a Stormtrooper, Darth Vader, Boba Fett, C-3PO, and, amazingly, Jabba the Hutt you can also see an Imperial Commander, Chewbacca and even R2D2 bare all and then ask some serious questions of yourself.

Jan Vormann, 26, has taken his project from its humble beginnings at an art fair in Rome and brightened up thousands of people's days with his brightly coloured plastic version of Polyfilla.

From the old quarter of Tel Aviv in Israel to the grand Bryant Park of New York, Mr Vormann has acted either independently or with the city's permission to leave a little part of his childhood behind.

Estimating to have used upwards of 1,000 of the little Danish building blocks, Mr Vormann enlists the help of passers-by intrigued by his careful placing of the Lego bricks.
