Priscilla Queen of the Desert

Why see Priscilla Queen of the Desert?

Based on the Oscar award-winning film, PRISCILLA tells the story of Tick, Bernadette and Adam, a glamorous Sydney-based performing trio that agree to take their show to the middle of the Australian outback.

PRISCILLA is a heart-warming, uplifting adventure of three friends who hop aboard a battered old bus (nicknamed Priscilla) searching for love and friendship and end up finding more than they could ever have dreamed.

Experience it for yourself... HOP ON BOARD!

JUST GREAT!

Please, go and see this show. You will love it. I lived in Manhattan for 20 years from 1970-1990 and SF for another 10 and I went twice to see this show in NYC last year. I had never seen anything quite like it in all my years and I've seen quite a few Broadway shows over the years. Right from the start you know you're going to have fun and the cast in NY was teriffic and have read the touring cast is as well. If you want a fun time at the theater - go see Priscilla. I'm bringing some friends to West Palm Beach when it comes here in April. Enjoy! ... Read more

A note from Bernadette..

Dear Colleen, I'm so sorry you didn't have a good time at the show. I am, in fact, a member of the company of PRISCILLA and wanted to clear up a point. Our DIVAS that descend from above do, in fact, sing every note live each and every night. They are three of the most talented young performers it has been my pleasure to work with. All of our ensemble sing live and constantly. Given the nature of the show and the tremendous number of Oscar, Tony and Olivier Award winning costumes they must change into...they are not only transforming themselves continually into a variety of characters backstage, but they are singing full on while changing wigs, makeup AND clothing. This is one of the most talented groups of people I have ever worked with. Each and every night, the audience responds to our show like we have just finished a rock concert. In my thirty years in the theater I have never had such Joy in knowing how much an audience appreciates our efforts. Again, I am so sorry you didn't. ... Read more
