Priscilla Queen of the Desert

Priscilla Queen of the Desert follows three friends as they travel across Australia in a tour bus named Priscilla to perform their drag act in the desert. Along the way, they encounter humour, prejudice and discovery, all set to a soundtrack of disco classics like "I Will Survive" and "Hot Stuff".

Based on the 1994 Academy Award-winning film, Priscilla Queen of the Desert premiered in Sydney in 2006 before moving to the West End and Broadway. It features a book by Stephan Elliott and Allan Scott and includes over 20 popular disco and pop songs from the 1970s and 1980s. The musical celebrates self-expression, diversity and chosen family, themes that resonate strongly with modern audiences.

Touring versions have kept its vibrant design, with hundreds of costumes and elaborate wigs created for each production. Its joyful mix of music and story ensures that it remains a favourite on stages around the world. The current UK tour continues this legacy, offering an exuberant celebration of individuality and friendship wrapped in glitter and heart.
