‘Priscilla, Queen of the Desert’ is a musical with a book by Australian film director-writer Stephan Elliott and Allan Scott, using well-known pop songs as its score. Based on the smash-hit movie of the same name, it is the heartwarming, uplifting adventure of three friends, Tick, Bernadette and Adam, a glamorous Sydney-based performing trio who agree to take their show to the middle of the Australian outback. They hop aboard a battered old bus nicknamed Priscilla searching for love and friendship and end up finding more than they ever could have ever dreamed of. Cast includes Ronald Watson as Bernadette, John Berring as Mitzi/Tick and Jesse Beere as Felicia/Adam. Christopher Rodriguez is Director/Choreographer and Andrew Hendley is Music Director.
