Like the 1994 comedy film written and directed by Stephan Elliott, the stage musical follows the story of three friends trekking across the Australian outback.
Priscilla charts the off-road trip of Tick, Adam and Bernadette – two drag queens and a transgender woman from Sydney – who travel across the the outback to Alice Springs to present a drag show.
Along the way, the audience will share in their misadventures, trials, tribulations and eventual triumphs in a heart-warming tale of love, friendship and difference set against a backdrop of homophobia and transphobia.
