What Is The Story?

Drag queens Tick and Adam and their transgender friend Bernadette, accept a gig in Alice Springs for a spectacular Sydney-based show. The three friends hop aboard a run-down old bus, fondly nicknamed Priscilla, and set out on an adventure into the Australian outback. But the jolly jaunt is not without its wobbles, as the trio encounters hospitality, hostility, and their own prejudices, and ultimately becomes a journey into the heart of friendship and family, love and learning, and, undeniably, all things fabulous.

5 STARS +++++ FOR PRISCILLA

Absolutely fabulous show. Great spectacle. Costumes are out of this world. The singing and dancing is probably the best I have heard and seen in a West End musical and I've been to a lot of them over the years. I really can't recommend this show highly enough. The feel good factor is immeasurable. ... Read more
