Read Joe's review of Priscilla Queen of the Desert
With more than 500 costumes and 39 musical set pieces, this lavish version of the hit 1994 film The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert is the most ambitious ever to come out of Australia. Hopefully it can match the commercial success and sheer entertainment value of the last notable Aussie export, Dirty Dancing.
Three drag queens set off for a gig in Alice Springs, and are forced to pit their fabulousness against the tough but magnificent outback. They discover more than they ever dreamed possible. The residents of the outback learn a thing or two as well...
This show was only moderately popular with critics in Sydney, but audiences adored it. Priscilla is also a huge hit over here thanks to our shared cultural heritage, sense of humour, fascination with men in women's clothing... and humongous Aussie population.
