<<I'm thinking about exploring comedies in which one or more central
characters participate in transgenderism, transsexuality, and/or simple
crossdressing and gender role reversal.>>
 
The best book available is Homer Dickens' What a Drag, Angus & Robertson.
London, 1982.
 
I would recommend that you check out the subject listing for
"Transgender/Drag" in our film database at http://www.popcornq.com to see
listings of a hundred or so films and videos (mostly independently produced,
but some Hollywood).  You'll find educational/non-theatrical rental sources
listed there as well.
